Well THE #1 thing I'd love to see (and I'm sure anyone else running vBlog) is the ability to display latest Blogs/Comments. I totally don't understand the apparent lack of understanding that visibility of new blog entries is *crucial* to the success of blogs on a site, but the way it is nobody ever sees the new entries unless they go *looking* for them, and that's a recipe for a dead blog system.

If anyone has any ideas on a block to show new Blog Entries/comments we'd be glad to subsidize development of it in any way possible. We've got the search integration working, but that only works for members (we restrict searching to registered accounts). We need something that's visible *all* the time the way we could when we used CMPS and vBlogetin, that worked great.
