Thomas was not meant to be an CMS module. Initial designed as an community 
blog service. I have a some feature ideas and redesign plans but its goal 
will still be to be a multiply/single user blog service. So I don't see it as 
a front-end for publishing content on the horde website. As I don't see Jonah 
either. We will just mess up good dedicated modules for an general purpose.

IMO Jonah should remain as an news feeder or rss aggregator. An CMS module 
should have an editor system, tracing differences between content versions, 
track-backs, connected with other modules (attachments from Gollem, link to 
shopping items from Merk...) and so on. So I would be happy to see an 
dedicated powerful module then extending Jonah or Thomas. I guess as a lot of 
companies uses Horde groupware will really like to see and module for such 
publishing and linking to their data that are already in their groupware 
intranet.
