Yes there will be, but it will be database based so you can see what is 
already requested and requests that are in work will be indexed to project 
information.

We just don't use these types of content generation much but there is no 
reason to duplicate them. There are several programs and scripts that already 
do this and they can easily be integrated as action or integrated with 
Kommander to make it easy to bring this to Quanta. There is also a KDE 
program on kde-apps.org that selectively removes elements of HTML. I would be 
a lot more interested in making sure these things integrate than duplicating 
them.

Thank you. Any support would be great so tell your friends. We're behind of 
funding this year.
