rthrash, what do you mean by pro-active?


cannuck1964, I have seen you post that before and didn't get it the last time... What does the "tep-docs module in CVS" look like or sound like?

I am still new to this whole thing really, it has only been less than two months that I have even been checking out OSC (or e-commerce for that matter)  I have installed phpBB three months ago and have modified a template for it.  But I have only done local installations for OSC with about 30 hours of modifying the "look" to realize that I need to have a template system that has PHP seperate from the HTML (content from style).  I barely made a dent in the look to osc.  So I have stopped trying to mod it and focus on learning Linux and PHP, so that one day I can help with contributions.  That is until OSC is converted into the templates.

If the OSC team does read any of this stuff, please take the future of OSC into deep thought.  Ask yourself if the road that you are going to go down is the right road and is there a chance that down that road you will need to backup turn around and go another way.  If so, maybe talking another road will need to be done now.  
I have faith that you guys will make the right choice, you have done so up till now.  I know that you have more devotion to your "baby" than I do, you created this and you want you child to grow into the best it can be.  I couldn't say anything that could make you think any differently.  What I can say is I believe in OSC too and think you guys are great.  I may never use this program, but I still belive in it.
