Hockey, I believe AC has a very nice core. It also has loyal users. What is needed is EXTENSIBILITY. The ability for 3rd parties to build modules which EXTEND the functionality but do not interfere with the main program.
One such program is what I wrote about above. Bert has FAP. There will be others. I believe the powers that be are thinking about the best mechanism for this type of collaboration.
The users, after purchasing the core module, will then BUY ONLY THE MODULES important to them. The program will "grow" yet maintain its small town feeling.
