Module development and code questions

Hi everybody,
as you can see on http://ffevm.org/feedback
the feedback module works great, but I don't want it to work
with HTML Area (which I like for the other editing tasks...)

Do you know how I can disable HTMLAREA for the text field of the feedback module?

Tnx in advance!

Has anybody made (started to make, considered making) a module (perhaps to compliment the project module) where users can log time spent on tasks? Just wondering! If I could roll back time like Hermione in Harry Potter III I'd have written it by now!

I know the weblink.module has been updated to Drupal v4.5, BUT it really does seem to me that it wasn’t reviewed before release.

Why do I say this?

Is there a way to list node types for which a user can perform an "update" operation?

The following is custom home page module. I want to call blog, story, quotes etc., in a menu.
By default all the blogs will be displayed, when a user clicks on story to display all the stories, similarly for quotes.
I went through the api and found that by calling blog_page the entire blogs posted will be displayed respectively for other nodes.

I am struck in calling the function menu, how to call the theme to display the output ?

php code ....

.... Implementation of hook_menu()....

I have a copy of the affiliates module used on http://spreadfirefox.com . It lets you create affiliate links with specific paths and banners for your site and provides a point system for tracking user success, also a block to display recent affiliates. I've been authorized to release it to the drupal community. It just needs an update for 4.5, but that may only require a few lines for node_access issues. Should be very simple for someone not as daft as me.
