Hi Joel,

Thank you for the wiki url. I will dive into that.
Some general questions:
- The interface should be (more or less) the same as phoenix V2?
- The main extention point for a user should be phoenix::functions?
- What exactly to you want to have in the proposal? function/class interfaces?
  general description of phoenix?
