Deprecated - Usability feedback

I made an experimental change to the forum module here on drupal.org. If you are an authenticated user and you go to the forum pages, you'll see a new link pointing to a new page with all recent forum topics you participated in (authentication required). The purpose of this page is twofold: (i) make it easy to find your own posts and (ii) make it easy to see if there are new replies.

I have been a user of Drupal for awhile now. I like how the dev-team can adapt a better solution and not worry about scrapping the existing code. Having installed and used several versions of Drupal over many months I think Drupal has evolved for the better. I see many many usage of Drupal out in the wild. Most of the more recent implementations of Drupal are for personal 1-5 person sites. Their needs are a bit different from large community focused sites. Reading through the forum, mailing list, various blogs and my personal experience, I have compiled a wishlist for Drupal: features that should come with Drupal out of the box.

I have been trying to create a front page which has a different design from the ususal simple node listing.
What I mean is that I don't want the nodes to be just listed. I want to be able to have two columns at the top and the rest listed something looking like this:

Hi all,
I would like to know if it is possible to remove links display when in preview of a node update or insert.
Certain modules, like Weblink, show links generated by the _link hooks also when in preview.
this is confusing, especially for unexperienced users, and, what's more, the links generated are wrong, since miss node_id.
I would like to know if I should sumbit an official request or if there is a way to avoid it.
Thanks
Matteo

I have created a module that tries to implement a simple comment system a la Moveable Type-style.

It makes no use of new tables or fields, but relies on the existing database, saving new data on the comment body, inside human-readable fields, making easy a later switch to drupal-style comments.

It's in a early stage and I'd like to have some feedback. The download URL is: title="simplecomment module for Drupal" href="http://pablobm.com/filestore/download/17">simplecomment module.

I hope it's useful to somebody.

The bug report http://drupal.org/node/view/4192 indicates that Drupal terms can be loaded as categories via the blogging client w.bloggar, presumably enabling the posting of a blog entry directly to a site category.

When I access a Drupal site (recent CVS version) with w.bloggar, though, I don't get the described "'categories' dropdown". Anyone know what I'm missing? Are there special steps or setup needed on the server or the client?

Thanks, Nedjo Rogers
