Now the -dev cvs has the new block types committed for testing.
 
It's pretty buggy and not complete at all.

Initial impressions - 

        - The increased flexibility from the web interface may lead to some 
confusion and page screwups.
        
        - I'm accustomed to modifying the scripts some to modify the pages, so 
it may take some time to get used to this.
        
        - There seems to be a little hit to the response time.  Not significant 
and caching the TopicBar block pretty much negates it.  I'm sure we can find 
some ways to optimize the blocks.


later,

Joe
