You are correct about migration from pre-ACS 4x and that the package lacks object/permissions system integration. I am new to the object concept in OpenACS and still need some time to digest it. At first glance, it does not look as if it would be overwhelmingly difficult to implement in our package.
As for the template system, I seemed to have missed some of the functionality that should be applied to our package. Is there any documentation for using templates with forms? Also, what other template features do you recommend that I have neglected to use?
Thank you for taking the time to inspect and comment on our code.
