The code base of the blog is what is in the Shiny SVN
(http://hytek.org/shiny/svn/shiny/trunk/). The relevant Radius code is
the same as for any stock Radiant version and the additions are
straight forward.

I don't want to interfere too much with the Radiant development,
though I am still optimistic that some of the ideas will eventually
make it into Radiant. A problem with that is that I am a slacker and
too lazy to write proper unit tests.

At the moment I don't consider Shiny as a fork but more as a branch of
Radiant. However, I am also not planning to turn Shiny into an
extension for Radiant. At least not at the moment. Radiant development
is not very fast, such that I can keep up with merging changes into Shiny.

I have thought before about turning it into an extension, but it goes
fairly deep into the internals of Radiant, such that an extension
would in fact turn around most of the Radiant code and change
Radiant's default database schema. This, I think, would not be a good
idea.

Alternatively, it could be turned into an extension parallel to
Radiant's default content model. That way it would setup it's own
tables etc. and attempt to disable Radiant's page implementation.

Maybe, though I get the shivers hearing that (for various reasons).

Cheers,
