We need to start doing this as soon as we catch up on sleep. We have an 
installation of Xaraya on our server now.

Thank You. Xanthia is our first module currently. We're developing it 
for a corporate client. Its also having a favorable impact in the PN 
community. This is a great example how a commercial business(s) can 
indirectly fund GPL development.

I'm a themes/graphics designer not a programmer. Larry Masters (Phpnut) 
is responsible for the majority of the programming. We'll have a PayPal 
Subscription Module available next week if testing goes well.

Because of the commercial nature of our operation our intent is not to 
create compatible modules for one CMS but as many as possible. Xaraya 
is our only choice and may be our only choice depending on feedback we 
get from corporate end users. Wed like to keep it simple when it comes 
to developing commercial sites for businesses. Scalability is critical.

Our priority is to wean our corporate clients off of PostNuke and move 
modules they depend on in business over to Xaraya 1.0 (ContentExpress, 
PostCalendar, etc.). We are making pnAPI compliance an issue in the PN 
community using http://pnapi.com to make the transition over to Xaraya 
as painless as possible. 

Looking forward to getting my hands dirty with BL :)
