Module development and code questions

According to this issue, the taxonomy_access module is no longer being maintained. Is there someone who can help? I think this is a nice module, and would like to use it, but it needs to have a few problems fixed. It probably also needs to be brought up-to-date with HEAD so it will work with Drupal 4.7 when released. Thanks....

Pathauto Module: What does "Verbose" mean

Hi.
In Home | administer | settings | Pathauto

It is used to display alias changes (except during bulk updates).

Q:
- I'm not sure if the changes are displayed to admin/mod only, or any registered users, or all people (including anonymous).
Does anyone know the answer?

I have a link problem. I put some links to navigation bar. I wrote the file name in the path. But it links to ?q=filename.php. I want it to link only filename.php. What does ?q= mean?

Tiddywiki from Postnuke

If you aren't familar with Tiddlywiki, it's a nifty little tool - a selfcontained wiki in one html page. The above code takes Postnuke content and converts it to a TiddlyWiki html page.

Your challenge: port this to Drupal. Shouldn't be too hard... as an added challenge, allow selecting only certain nodes such as by type or author.

Would it be possible to code a block that shows the latest entries for a certain type of flexinode? Thanks for your help.
