   Daniel, using Mango actually inspired me to write this. Mango is great but the way it writes it’s config files and how it uses the custom tags for the skins makes it a pain for me to use in a day to day environment. I do agree that we need an enterprise level forum, e-commerce I’m not so sure since it could very greatly depending on what your selling, but I suppose a bare bones ecommerce ’skeleton’ if you will would be handy.

   +1 for building the growing community which already exists around Mango (which already has theming and a plugin system) than try to come out with another WP replacement. I’m curious as to why specifically you find Mango a “pain” to use. It seems like contributing an existing project to address those pain points would be much less work than starting from scratch.
   Of course, you’re free do to as you will. But in my opinion our small CFML community will never be able to build and support a blog engine in the way PHP has done with WordPress if everyone writes their own instead of contributes to a community project.
