Owen,

Great!

The original thread was:

"Getting access to the original definition of an extended tag"

   
http://groups.google.com/group/hobousers/browse_thread/thread/98fd5c8c8c3afecd/fbcc5a7b7a5584df?lnk=gst&q=old+tags#fbcc5a7b7a5584df

Guess that is back to Aug 19, 2009  ---but I was unable to
get  <old-projectfooter /> to work for me. Only with

<def tag="edit-project" alias-of="projectfooter"/>

before the <extend> was I able to access original definition.
I am using Hobo v.1.0 (RC 02)

Cheers,

   Jet
