As you probably know, we have been using LifeType for quite a long time, and
we even donated to the project. And we have a somehow big implementation
running on it http://blogs.albawaba.com . The problem is that we started in
a very ad hoc manner, and now we have a big pile of hacked code on the
service. As we are continuously developing this service, we decided to
rewrite most of the code to become LT1.2 compatible and hopefully make our
changes clean.

How open are you guys for us to contribute our changes back to the project?
For example we have the following features, which we would like to share in
the future once we clean them up:

- Private templates
Templates that don't show for the public. Only administrators can assign
this template to some blogs

- Domain name support
We just finished the support for people to have their own domain names
instead of some pattern naming scheme


We have also rewritten most of the language files. We did a usability test,
and I think we have better "labels" than the original project. We're more
than happy to contribute as much as we could. In fact, we can assign one
full time employee to work on the project for a decent amount of time, and
share everything with you.

Cheers,
