Hi

Zencart provides a very frugal upcoming module for central boxes, and has a way to mask or unmask as new products.
Over the years there was no update or a plugin made to finish (?) or improve this feature.
Comparing to the other modules ( featured, new, etc) , it's like a medieval ############## son who was abandoned or there is a much deeper mystery why no one has ever made some improvements for this module?

I will need this, and for that I guess I'll do it, but, it puzzles me.
Is there a story ?
