I want to get involved.  Are there any specific projects that I can tackle or help with?  Or, are there any dull monotonous tasks that I can do? What still needs to be done before we can release 2.4?

I have very much enjoyed reading this discussion about the addons, and I there's a simple solution that is being overlooked.  If I've read correctly, 2.4's backend is going to be more separated and make use of modules more than previously.  If more of the add-ons were modules and could be easily installed, tested, and removed, purists could still forgoe any force-fed addons integrated into the core, and users could more easily create their perfect cart will all necessary features.

Regarding integrating a feature like SEO URL-Rewriting, if it were to be integrated into the core, which would be awesome, it would make sense to offer multiple options for who to write the URLs so that people could choose whatever scheme they wanted.

That looks gorgeous.

Has a consensus been met regarding the localization?  

I, would much prefer the .ini files as original mentioned over the the database approach.  I feel minimizing queries should be a goal of 2.4, since it's so much about optimization.

I like that you're using Bootstrap.  I actually just tackled the task of porting bootstrap to OSC recently.  It's good to see this is happening.  

One suggestion, and  I'm not sure it hasn't already been done, is changing the bm_categories box to use Unordered Lists.  

I apologize for not having read the guidelines for this forum. I'm not sure where the best place to move this topic would be, and I don't know that I am able to move it.  If a moderator could please relocate it, I would appreciate that.  Also I apologize for double posting, I don't see an edit button anymore.
