And about the "stealing other people's code" comment, do you have any proof? Actually I know one CMS that stole PHP-Nuke's codes and add-ons and named it their's.

I know someone who stole code to create PHP-Nuke Laughing

So this accusing should stop anywhere to anyone unless they sell the OpenSource code (you can read all about that on e107.org and php-fusion.co.uk).
After all everyone uses code from everyone and that's what OS is all about untill you SELL someone his code.

TechGFX does a great job and his package is cool.
He did fool me though with his late april joke Razz

He meant to do it as an april fools joke, but because everyone thought he was died he didn't go with this. HE was just testing some speedtricks on the site, so he closed it for some time but didn't chang the message he had saved already.
