I'm not sure I understand what you propose.  If it's some code that 
adapts COREBlog objects to the quills.core interfaces so that they can 
use the quills views, remote blogging, etc, then that sounds great.

But then you talk about migrating COREBlog-ish content to ATCT.  That 
makes sense in that once it's ATCT content, it becomes simple to just 
use QuillsEnabled.  However, it then sounds like you are talking about 
somehow reinventing the QuillsEnabled code as COREBlog2Enabled.  I'm not 
sure what that buys you, expect a duplication of effort ;-).

If you've got time to spare, there are several things that could help 
get QuillsEnabled up to speed :)...
