Hey there, thought I’ll give it a 5 as it works as it should. Though I would really
love to see some more functions especially in terms of public/private state and 
probably some implementation of role rights. It’s a shame that this topic is so 
behind in wordpress. Especially when dealing with user submitted content, different
post status are important. Thanks for your work!
