Hey guys,

I'm thinking about making the user quotes on the main website database
driven .  Two goals behind this would be to allow for a page where we could
display all user quotes, and also to allow the quotes on the main page to be
randomly generated for each site build, making the front page a little less
static.  The one tricky part seems to be how best to handle translations. I
had a thought to make the database table something simple like quote,
tagline, & lang, which would be fine for storing the content, however I'm not
sure the best way for extracting it.  I was thinking the calls to func_lang
could be replaced with a get_quote, and then use $_LANGUAGE for
system/handler.php as an argument to get the appropriate quote.  I figure
this will also mean we need an addition to the admin screens for inputing
quotes. Does this sound reasonable?
