need to create templates based on magnolia standard templating kit...by watching other modules in built in Magnolia...
can i get a start here from any of our folks.....or some steps to catch up with...
Thanks in advance...
Did you read the documentation at http://documentation.magnolia-cms.com most specifically the technical guide's section on STK: http://documentation.magnolia-cms.com/technical-guide/stk.html
If you still have questions i suggest to use http://forum.magnolia-cms.com

I just got access to the new Stencil beta and I have no idea what to do. I have reviewed all of the documentation on the BC developer website, but I don't know how to proceed. I am also not sure if I will even be able to create designs in Stencil since I don't know Handlbars or json - are those programming skills required or can we still rely on CSS and HTML for most design customization? BC told me there is no support for getting set up and to ask in this forum instead.
Normally I would look under the hood of an existing theme to see how it's built and try "learning on the job" but since I can't even get access to the files, I am at a loss. I created an account on GitHub but I have never used it so I don't know where to look for the files (I did a search but there are thousands of files there and I again couldn't figure out where to start). Can anyone point me in the right direction so I can determine if using Stencil is even feasible for my projects?
Handlebars compiles serverside as HTML. You do still have stylesheets, but we are using some SASS custom functions (documented in Stencil docs).
I'd recommend taking a look here: http://blog.teamtreehouse.com/getting-started-with-handlebars-js
Later i worked with symfony framework. In this framework we can easily build a multi language project by using FOSUserBundle. But i do'nt know what to do in phalcon! In the Phalcon documentation (multi-lingual-support) explained a way for it! But if i have many languages this way is too difficult!
Do yo know about any provided library for multi language projects?
You can either use the Phalcon\Translate to translate all your strings in respective arrays - one file per language. The reference in the documentation as you correctly posted is here and it refers to the native array adapter.
There are additional adapters in the incubator repo, for PO files or database driven.
You might also want to see the internationalization area in the documentation.
take a look at this piece of code

I read Scott Gu's article about built-in support for bundling and minification in ASP .NET 4.5.
However there's no mention of embedded resources, which is a pity.
In the past I've been using a Codeplex project called Client Dependency Framework which supported embedded resources.
Seems like a pretty major omission to me. Is support planned?
I'm pretty sure you could write your own transformer to handle this.
Create a class that implements System.Web.Optimization.IBundleTransform.
Then in the Process method get the contents of the embedded resource. This shouldn't be too difficult. This blog post might be helpful.
Then add the transform to the bundle.
e.g.
var bundle = new Bundle("~/Test").Include("~/Content/Site.css");
bundle.Transforms.Add(new EmbeddedResourceTransformer());
Note that I am using the nuget package from System.Web.Optimization, not Microsoft.Web.Optimization (I have no idea why there are two different namespace implementations, and whether the syntax would be the same in both).
I also can't vouch for the performance of doing it this way as opposed to the file system.
Hope that helps!
Just a few comments on above answers since I don't have enough rep. to comment directly...
The answer from Hainesy suggests using a BundleTransform. I believe this is too late in the process to include an embedded resource. The BundleTransform is helpful for converting things inside the css or javascript after the contents are pulled from the original file and before they are put into the bundled file. For example, if you need to modify image URL's in CSS to point to local relative url for dev and to a CDN url for production.
The link from user960567 explains how to use embedded resources, but there's a catch. That process will only work for something like a common control used from another project.
e.g. If you create a textbox that needs CSS and JS then it allows you to create a HTML helper in the common project that will add the textbox and the script tags that pull in the embedded resource into the page. It does not allow you to pull the embedded resource from the common project into a bundle in another project. This will basically create a separate script or style tag for each embedded resource which may not be what you want (at least it's not what I was looking for.)
I've written a detailed article about how you can use the bundle and minification technology to wrap up your external resources here.
I have a great difficulty finding documentation on how to implement internationalization/localization with Apache Velocity. I checked Velocity documentation and did online research, but I can't find supporting material on how to organize and support localization using .vm (Velocity template) files and properties.
Can someone please direct me to the right resource/documentation/book that describes how to implement localization using Apache Velocity?
I'm trying to do as much as I can up-front research and reading before starting coding.
Thanks,
partizan
Use VelocityTools.

It's also likely that Spring provides some velocimacro or context object that helps with i18n, as Spring generally has a lot of support for i18n
I see a lot of new websites lately which create automated content, most notable SiteGuruji and 7zoom:
http://www.siteguruji.com/site/youtube.com
Is there an application framework or text analysis framework available to create such sites? SiteGuruji is doing full SEO analysis of the sites as well. Is there an SEO analysis library available? How do I do such an analysis?
Sorry for the noobish question, but i am new to programming and thus I am not sure which direction to start in.
By SEO did you mean this section of the page?
http://www.siteguruji.com/site/youtube.com#seo_status ?
I don't think any frameworks are available for SEO... however you can check out NLTK for text analysis and natural language processing:
http://www.nltk.org/book
You basically need to write your own classes to scrape content from the site and third party sites and analyse it. I have not found something ready for this. Bits fom here and there, you can use.
Personally, I have created everything from scratch using zend framework as basis.
