This project has started as a request for a CMS content type. Later on it turned out that the vbCMS is not a feasible platform for this and it doesn't look vbCMS will get a rewrite ever. So the project changed to an integrated CMS.
22 people each pledged a substantial amount to hire a coder. No coder has been selected yet, as Adrian and you came in announcing that you would release a reviews addon. I thought it fair to give you both a chance to release something and see where that leads.
The list of features is not an arbitrary list, but is the compilation of what these 22 people want.
Nonetheless, you are free to release any feature set that you think is right, and I am sure that there will be people who are interested.
Regarding GARS: you are correct about the insanity of some features, but the reality is that some of us have many thousands of GARS entries. 11.000 in my case. As you can imagine its not an option to loose that data.
You are right that its a big project. Not every coder is able or willing to do a big project. I've seen that many times before. But there are coders who do deliver such projects. Its time for that now.
