I don't know if you know this, but I know that Fliggerty has created a new site called http://status.fliggerty.com/index.php,
That's not going to help new players find mods they want, or mod suggestions, or how to use mods.
It doesn't really have anything to do with mods.
Another thing I noticed in the OP is that I think you should know that http://planetelderscrolls.gamespy.com/View.php?view=OblivionUtilities.Detail&id=44 on PES is almost obsolete or outdated. I also know that you can use this http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=22368 (Python 2.6.5) instead.
Are you sure it's outdated? It worked fine for me when I installed Mash 6 months ago.
I'll add the link though, to make sure people can find the files that are needed. Thanks.
