your spreading yourself thin pick 1 topic and stick to it

To be an okay summoner you only really need a few feats, Augment Summoning being the usual one, and some reliable way summons. A few levels of Malconvoker/Thaumaturgist doesn't hurt, but is not really necessary. So once you have that, just focus on melee.

I don't really know koTR so I can't really comment on your build, but seems fine.

To be a cleric is to have melee options. Clear your mind, you know this to be true.

As far as summoning goes, if you're good, try to dip as many levels of malconvoker as possible.

And in more seriousness about the melee side, all you ever really need or want to be a strong melee threat as a cleric is 6 feats: PA, Imp. BR, Sock Trooper, DMM(Persist), Extend/Persist metamagic. You can pick up extend spell with a domain, and a fighter dip is always great on a cleric, meaning you'll only need 4 feat slots to go the rest of the way.

Also, you can't take DDM without the pre-requisite metamagic feat(technically you can, if you like setting feats on fire, but meh). This was added in the errata.

Finally, Cloudy Conjuration is worthless to you, imho.

The domain that grants extend is Planning, which is otherwise "meh" until you get to the level 9 domain spell whereupon it becomes "OMGWTFBBQ!"

Eberron has the feat Mastery of the Twilight Denizens which extends summoning. If you're focusing on one kind of thing for cheesy metamagic the best one isn't even metamagic:

You cast summoning (twinned or repeating) using DMM. Next round cast the same summon spell again, and it gets the previous metamagic for free! 4 for the price of 2! :D The feat is Residual Magic from complete mage.

Possibly also consider the feat Rapid Spell to get the summons off faster or extend to make them last longer. I'm guessing though that at high levels extend on a summons isn't that big a deal. If you extend it to 20 rounds but the combat only lasts for 8 there might not be much point.
