Module development and code questions

I am new to drupal and would like to know how to write a module that has 2 textfields a submit button and post it as a page content.....

thanks in anticipation..

After I installed the Subscriptions module, every post should have a "subscribe post" link. But this is not happening on my site. Some posts just don't have that link. I cannot figure out the reason.

Can i make a block with choice menu ? I want the value of menu choice will affect some page,so how can i do that ?

I'm trying to understand how to create a moderation queue that is content-type and category aware.

My problem is that I'm a number of 'editors' each in charge of moderating a section of the site.
When a story tagged with a term is submitted I'd like it to be moderated by the editor in charge of
moderating that term. I want to have only one user role for editors and I'd like to have a simple UI to
associate users to terms and content types. Moreover since these editors can change often, I'd like
to have one role with permission to update this list.

The work-flow should be:
- a contributor submit a story associated with a term that is not-published and in moderation by default
- an email is sent via the action module to the editor(s) associated with this content type and term
- by using the modr8 module, the editor associated with this term has access to the moderation
queue containing this particular story
- the story is approved, and email is sent via the action module to the author, the story status is changed
to publish.

I'm thinking of writings a small module to implement this UI and then use the ACL module to change
permissions accordingly (basically a node in moderation should only be visible to a specific group of
users/editors).

My question:
- Is this a good way of attaching this problem ?

i wrote a node . Now i want to grant permission for 2 group. Except Administrator ,user in group A has 2 rights : create,write,view,delete . user in group B can only view.
How can i do it ?

It is my understanding that the i18 contrib module is going to become part of Drupal core starting with version 6 or 7. (Someone please tell me if this is not the case.)

For those of us using (or who, like myself, are about to start using) the current i18 contrib module, is it safe to assume that there will be a fairly smooth upgrade from Drupal 5 with i18 (as a contrib mod) to Drupal 6 (with i18 in core)?
