[geeklog-devel] Wanted: New home for Blaine's plugins

[cordiste]

Some geeklog community members want to know about the future of
Blaine's plugins (forum, filemgmt). What can we do and what can we
say?

There is also

- glmenu
- gl messenger
- Chatter block
- FAQ manager
- gl Quiz

to take care of.
