Have been out of the loop for the past several weeks, and I don't know if these have been addressed yet, but here are a couple of items that come to mind:
* Remove custom permissions from existing packages where possible. For instance, I have a working version of news that uses the generic permissions (ie, create, admin, etc.) and removes the unnecessary and redundant module-specific permissions (ie, news-create, news-admin, etc)
* I also ported the FAQ module to Postgres and applied a few bug fixes. I would gladly check that in as well...
