Module development and code questions

I'm researching the option of using Drupal for our Flash sites and the AMFPHP module looks very promising. Problem is I have just started using Drupal so basically I'm looking for some examples to give me a headstart. One of the issues I ran into sofar:

How do I Lock a site while I need to do maintenance on it? Then how would I unlock it?

Hi There,

Would any of the experienced Drupal coders be willing to take a look at the 4.6 version of the Blog Theme Module and update it to 4.7 ?

The link to the 4.6 module is here: http://drupal.org/node/19248

Blog theme allows users to have persistent themes for their blogs 
based on the theme they choose for their account. When others 
view their main blog page, or any node created by them, the reader
will see the authors theme instead of their own. 

The module works by using the hook_init function and setting the 
$custom_theme global variable to the node/blog owner's theme.

work was started on a fix here: http://drupal.org/node/59318

Basically this module allows those people who use Drupal blogging to allow each of their members to choose a different theme for their blog, giving each one a more personal feel. As people visit the blog area of the website, the themes will change from blog to blog.

It would be a great addition to the community. Sadly the original author has not posted in here for several months and it would be a shame to see it die.

Hope to hear from you soon.

Hey guys,

Big question. You know how when you click on a Taxonomy term, you're taken to a page the displays the most recent nodes attached to that term? I would like to change that template. I would like to instead have a page with various lists (Most Recent, Most Popular, Uncommented, etc), with the content in each list being specific to the taxonomy level of the selected term. With what module would I go about doing this? Any tips or hints?

Thanks so much for any help.
