Seems a lil square one planning might be in order. First narrow your sights, decide whom your target audience is. In programming class we were taught to write like the least versed about computers and software or in this case the UBB was going to use it.
(Side note: I think Hacks is negative in connotation as Allen has echoed several times.)
Is this a further progression in what was once called the vinkilum? If so, then you're establishing a sub format then. The primary being the coding needed to create said works, and the sub being the format in which it's used.
In my long winded way, I'm trying to stress that with so many hacks/mods being created, will those outside this conversation be expected to follow or will they be required (if they don't comply their mod isn't posted here?)
Clearly there are a lot of top flight programmers here, and those like myself that get lucky once in a while. I am not saying anything against this, but how it is implemeneted could be crucial to the growth of the board.
