Hi Justin,

The bottom line for us is that we want to make BuddyPress a set of
plugins which a) don't require any changes to the Wordpress MU core
code and b) can be installed separately at will. So if you do
something make sure it can live happily with other plugins and doesn't
require any hacks and it should be fine.

Thanks very much, any ideas you've got would be gratefully received.
What did you have in mind?

Chris
