Making an auto installer

[AlexC]

I don't know the best way to group on a project, but I just thought I'd quickly bring up two possibilities.

One - will the service be entirely free, or should we modify the script to allow for premium features?

Two - how will we manage people adding mods or themes? Is it possible to do a directory similar to wordpress's where you select what mods or themes you'd like to use from a central location? (It'll help against uploading bad code, security risks, site breaking, etc... And you could tie it into paid features? Offer paid mods or themes?)

(Mini three question - I'm assuming there will be a separate forum for support, user community, etc? I can help manage/run that if you need.)

1. Service will be free. Paid features would be cool but I don't no what to offer. However I can only offer free hosting at a reasonable amount. I don't mind spending 20$ a month on hosting but if it gets up to 100$ then there will need to be ads, donations or something.

2. While the site is one click install the user will still have access to the files so adding mods will be managed by them or someone willing to do it for them. Same goes for themes but I hope to add a theme swapping feature too.

3. We will need support/fun discussion boards. I am now thinking of just using forum software like mybb because it already handles resisted users. so the mysidia install script will be like a plugin or extension of the forum.
