There are some topics on the forum that were never answered or not unsewered by GS developers, and who are the developers actually, they don't seem to mark much of a presence around here. There are issues on the issue tracker that have gotten no attention or reply.
Most of the changes don't relate to new features, only a different way of getting things done, currently my needs/goals are:
- content and scripts out of web accessible folder.
- more unity in code, there is some use of Camel Case and the classic underscores in function names, all mixed up.
- Clean errors before moving to another version.
- No MySQL support, keep it simple. There are a lot of MySQL based alternatives out there, the strength of GS as always been it's XML approach
- Prepare the move to an object orientated structure.
- Better UI an general usability.
I could try to contribute to GS, as I have done before, but I've had no answers to some of my questions, there as been no SVN activity for some time and no feedback on how the project is going, and most of my changes go against the way GS is developed. Creating a patch that would diverge the code from it's current path is not something I thought would be accepted.
If GS implements some of the features/improvements I'm thinking about then that would be great for GS, but I need a base to work on now, not in two months. Nevertheless, the code I'm developing is open source, if any of my code is useful to GS you can pick it up.

Rejoice! For very bad things are about to happen.
