I finally committed my folders code to CVS. You can check it out by updating antville to branch "folders". I'm not 100% sure I didn't forget anything, but I'll find out later today when I try it from home. Feedback and collaborators are highly welcome.

except for a missing "contributorlink" macro in the site's folder view - but I'm not sure yet I want to do it that way.

i just had a brief look at your branch, didn't have the time to dig very deep into it. my first reaction was: great, this really goes into the right direction. just a few initial remarks:

• i find it quite confusing that you didn't centralize the functionality for managing folders in a separate "foldermgr" (that extends storymgr?) but placed the methods/skins into site, storymgr, story (the latter containing skins i would have expected in "folder").
• the display of folders doesn't work in my copy here because the body onload function initEditor() isn't found (i suspect that you forgot to commit in the modified page.skin)

i'll have a deeper look into it later in the evening, so expect more feedback within the next day. and thanks for your efforts!
