Progress in project X

New additions to project X:

• Menu now templated and customizable. Working on hook to transparently override the default menu.
• New widget for custom menu.
• New widget for category list
• Made a prototype for customizable gallery support. Works like a charm, but needs to be fleshed out.
• First steps towards a new and better templating engine.

The default WordPress menu widget has a templated counterpart now. You can add this to a widget area, select one of your templates, and it will render the menu with your HTML.

Another new widget is a basic category list renderer. It doesn’t do hierarchical category lists yet, but will in the future.
