for notifications, please look at how's done at the faq pkg for a good example, basically you'll define a service-contract:
http://cvs.openacs.org/cvs/openacs-4/packages/faq/tcl/apm-callback-procs.tcl?rev=1.1&view=auto
and add the proper link to add notifications:
http://cvs.openacs.org/cvs/openacs-4/packages/faq/www/index.tcl?rev=1.6&view=auto

> Allow users to invite other users to join the community by typing in an email and clicking a button.

this sounds good, can you elaborate it a bit more?, since it can be the beginnig of an small & useful service for the acs_objects.

And if you develop something, please feel free to send a patch so someone can review and commit your code.

Roc, not sure, but I guess it is something like the .LRN administrator functionality to add new members, this time though only by giving the e-mail adress and sending out a prefixed invitation like "Hey Dude, check out this cool community" 😊. Once the user clicks on the link, he gives his name and password and is immediately accepted to the community as a registered member.
