In case you've been living under a rock, the foundations for Compo4All are getting laid, and Jeff is working on updating the backend. So I've offered to help build a new UI.
There's also a kind of temptation to cross in a general PND launcher so it's kind of like the MiniMenu, and possibly some PNDManager style functionality. Basically an all-purpose GUI for the Pandora; but that's a long way off.

Some of you might recognise the UI design from traylorpark/Binky
First steps will be to interact with the R.O.T. (Compo4All) server, create profiles, log in etc.
My next step will be to try to identify C4A enabled games so I can list them, and allow the user to create a favourites list; followed by launching the games
I've mentioned to Jeff that two things I would like to add in to the framework is:
1. Support of user-content - ie, distributing user created levels etc.
2. A simple messaging system that works kind of like the forum's PM - when you send a message it stores on the server, and the client will poll for messages frequently, so it'll be a type of IM.
The questions I want to ask are:
1. Are people interested in anything more than the a Comp4All interface? (PND Launcher/Manager functionality)
2. Are there any features you'd be interested in seeing?
Regards
