Hi Maurizio, Yes, what you are talking about is the intent of the Twigs project. There's a mindmap started if you'd like to take a look <http://mind42.com/pub/mindmap?mid=9aca75ce-f8c6-4e58-bef3-c9a44a2306bc>. Also, feel free to edit or post comments to the Wiki page <http://wiki.magnolia-cms.com/display/WIKI/Magnolia+Twigs+Module>. If you'd like to contribute to the project I'd love to have you're help. If you're not yet set up as a Magnolia Contributor <http://documentation.magnolia-cms.com/contribute.html#WriteCode>, you may need to do that, but I'm not sure whether it applies to Forge projects. Greg, could you provide feedback about this?
As for the name choice, I was originally going to call it STKX, as a sort of homage to the band, Styx <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Styx_%28band%29>, but alas, Greg thought it might be too confusing to have an STK, ETK, and a STKX. So stepping down from STKX to Twigs seemed an appropriate solution. Besides, part of the intent of the project is to be an incubator for features that could eventually find there way into the STK. So a twig grows into a stick.
