Jeff Miccolis wants to improve the hook_block() function in Drupal to make it more similar to hook_menu(). He is a maintainer of several Drupal modules including boxes, context, strongarm, spaces, and open atrium. The block_block_info() function currently retrieves block information from the block_custom table in the database and defines callback functions for each block.
