Slashdot like systems?

I've been trying very hard to find Slashdot type-systems that I can use for a news site.

Namely, I need

* the ability for users to submit stories
* the ability to comment and categorize these stories

And it would be nice to have

* some kind of comment rating system (like Slashdot)

A bug of forum module?

I am using Drupal 4.6.0, when i enable the forum, and accident delete the vocabulary in Adminstrator->taxonomy.
After that, I define the forum in Administrator->forum, but the forum container and forum didn't appear in the taxonomy, and when I post a new forum topic, I can't select a forum. So the topic I posted didn't show in the forum.

Is it a bug? and how can I cover this?

Drupal with no theme

I am working on a site with no themes enabled. Would like to know how the form output gets printed, when no theme is selected ?

well theme() doesnt work as there is no theme selected

taxonomy regex

this is a regular expression taken from taxonomy module

...

// this, "somecmpany, llc", "and ""this"" w,o.rks", foo bar
      $regexp = '%(?:^|,\ *)("(

[^"]*)(?>""[^"]* )*"|(?: [^",]*))%x';
...
?>

may i know how this is " w,o.rks" represented above ? i could not see a . (full stop) in the expression.

explanations on the expression, please ?

another problem but don't know how to search

Using Drupal4.6.
When I found that I create a forum topic but it didn't display in the forum, I check MySQL database, I got this warning:

===========================================
Problems with indexes of table `node`
Warning More than one INDEX key was created for column `status`
Problems with indexes of table `term_node`
Warning PRIMARY and INDEX keys should not both be set for column `tid`
============================================

I want to search for the answer, but don't know the keyword i need.

Please help, I want a linkbox...

Let me say what I want to do and please tell me how can I do it in Drupal!

1. I want a block that has 10 latest links.
2. I want people to be able to add a new link either from the menu or by typing in the details in the block itself (preferred).
3. I want the following fields for the link: name for the link, url, small description and category optionally.
4. I want people to be able to comment on the links.
5. Finally, but this is optional, I want to be able to organize the submitted links into categories, like a book.

Thanks you!
