I don't agree with this last one: if it isn't read why should we mark it read? The ideal would be to mark "unread never to be read messages" as "ignored".
We will add any add-on (including themes ad styles) that is stable (doesn't need major changes) and maintained enough. It can be maintained by someone else than the original author as long as he understand the extension and can test it with the current version of Vanilla 1 in the repository trunk.
So far only Klaus (aka Subjunk) has added some extensions (Notifi, Whisperfi and Sirnot's HtmlFormatter).
@Dinoboff: After noticing major XSS attacks on an addons (TagThis), it would be a good idea to point addon writers to wapati or similar attack checkers. Just my $.02
I can't believe I forgot this, but for the love of god, PLEASE include Set List in the Vanilla 1.2 release. If this is in the core then plugin developers will start using it more often and we'll get generally better options for plugins!
I noticed that all unauthenticated users can see members in "search" -- it would be good if we could somewhat deny this ability or at least have the ability to choose who can see these members.
1. Attachments (needs some stability work - I'll be working on this soon.) 2. Notifi (and RSS) 3. Category permissions 4. Comment formatting buttons (html pref) and HTML Formatter 5. Polls (needs some work) 6. Quoting
While I think this is a really cool idea - I'm a bit worried of inclusion of extensions into the core. I've had to fix several small bugs and deal with quirky functionality in many of the extensions I've used. I'd be more in favor of some kind of top-10 list. The community would get direction as to which extensions are the most popular without sacrificing the stability of the core forum.

Even more OT: Aww, my name linking doesn't work anymore

@Stash: works for me too! It would be the best option to be fair.

I've been using it for years without issue.
Just wondering.....
