Announcing Bonfire - A jumpstart for your web apps

@authorfre - Hope you enjoy it. I am getting close to having the tutorial done. Freelance work is keeping me busy, so the development has been slower (but not at all halted!)

@loosetops - I don't know how many times I've read over the HMVC wiki and still missed that I could put that configuration in the main config file. I will definitely make that change. Thanks for pointing it out!

As for upgrades, That's definitely something that I want to address (unless someone beats me to it...) My current plans are for Bonfire core to be able to have a Wordpress-like upgrade tool. This will probably work over FTP, though I'm tempted to make it also work with Git. This wouldn't touch config files, etc.

Bonfire modules you can mostly drop in place, unless there are database changes. That still has to be worked out, but will probably use migrations. Not 100% on that.

As for CodeIgniter upgrades, if they don't cause any issues with the Bonfire (which I believe the 2.0.2 will due to some security changes that I will have to change throughout the app) then you can simply drop the contents of the system folder into the codeigniter folder and be done with it.

And, while small changes in HMVC and CI might be tempting to upgrade, the way that everything is working together currently, I would only do that on a test copy .

Glad you're liking the app and I'd love to hear any other suggestions or comments.
