Thanks a lot - looking forward to it!

I really like the underlying philosophy of this project, and I think I 
will invest a bit of time to get a small app up and running.

One of my ideas for a starter project would be a multi-user photo 
gallery with upload and so on (yeah, I know, there are zillions out 
there already). Any good pointers to keel demo apps with this sort of 
functionality?

I would also like to add a discussion forum. Are there any existing 
framework candidates out there to plug into Keel, or would one have to 
roll one's own?


Thanks again,

Morten
