Module development and code questions

I'm currently using drupal to put together a database of internet access plans for New Zealand. I've classfied each plan (node) by ISP, Access Method, Type (Residential/Commercial), and Locations Available, using the taxonomy system. However, I'm coming up against a few problems: First, the heirachy seems a little flat - to my mind, any term in a taxonomy should be a child of that taxonomy as a whole, and that taxonomy needs a page listing all its terms. The same applies to terms in a heirachial taxonomy - shouldn't terms with children show a list of child terms?

Hi,
Ive been working on a module, its working very roughly, I was wondering if its of intrest to anyone else, or if someone would read through the code and point out the major issues.

The idea is all my blogs have images, normally a spool of pics from my digital camera. So you write a blog and attach a zip file full of images or a single image. pblog stores these on the server and creates the thumbnails etc. The pblog block displays a random pic from a random pblog with a link to the node. The teaser image is also random. Its all still very rough but it works for me.

I would like to add date/time release blog entries. Example: Enter something today that I don't want to display on the frontpage until next week. (I would like to move a blog I have running in Nucleus to Drupal, but can't until I am able to add this feature).

I will be able to do the coding once I figure out where the necessary functions, etc. are located in Drupal.

Can anyone point me to the areas?

Thanks.

Do we already have a complete and concise listing of all hooks (_hookname) and their purpose/definition, used by Drupal for modules?

If not has anyone who knows whats going on got any plans to consolodate the information as I feel that it would be most beneficial to module developers - such as myself.

I'm doing a bit torrent tracker. It will have anti-leech features:
1. tracker only replies to users whose torrent is published in it's forum. No "borrowing tracker"
2. user's id is embedded in the torrent when they download, so IP check is done. This prevents user d/l torrent and publish it elsewhere.

The tracker is 80% done, just need testing. I want to integrated with drupal, phpBB, or IPB. Anyone with experience what to join?

Hi,
Im busy writing a module to extend the node module. Its all done and working (Roughly) only problem is I have to have access to administor nodes to be able to view the full node. The teaser is fine, just the full node. Have I missed something out in my code?
