This is one of the reasons I love Creative Commons. Personal / community / non-profit sites can happily co-exist using the same work that commercial enterprise pays a licencing fee for. I will be releasing more templates under CC licence once I feel I've finished my GPL "quota"

Regarding the "Ako-form vs Phil-a-form" debarcle, I was also left with a bad taste in my mouth, due to the way the nature of competitive products was handled. Since PAF is now "off the books" as it were, perhaps Akoforms could make a comeback?

It's good to hear that Arthur is looking (again) at ways to increase the commercial visibility and viability for Mambo work. Hopefully, the level of supprt for commercial work will rise to the occassion..
