A few things:

1. Can I get edit access?  My username is 'pschneider'.

2. Are there any thoughts re: how pages are parented?  I noticed that only
the 'Toolchains' proposal is parented by 'All Proposals'.  Most of the rest
seem to be under 'Maven 2.1 Design Documents'.  It would be nice to see, at
a glance, which version these proposals relate to, and an easy way to do
that might be to categorize proposals with appropriate parent pages.  I
think as the list of proposals grows, it's going to be difficult to make
sense of this page.  This can be addressed later pretty easily I think.

3. I'm confused about where in svn new features get implemented.  'Where new
development starts' (on
http://docs.codehaus.org/display/MAVEN/Development+Process) says all new
features/improvements go into the latest trunk revision.  The 'Annotated
Development Process' says to "Create a feature/change branch and start
working on your code."  Which is is?

Hi,

As part of trying to make the whole process of making changes and
adding new features transparent to everyone involved I've whipped up
a little sketch for perusal:

http://people.apache.org/~jvanzyl/DevProcess.png

Basically it revolves around making sure things are documented in the
Wiki and providing a clear record of the evolution of the project
that anyone can follow at any point in time. So far from perfect but
I think a good starting point and I would like to field feedback so I
can improve it. It basically revolves around the dashboard where I've
tried to collect all relevant information about the project:

http://docs.codehaus.org/display/MAVEN/Home

And process is based around making proposals that eventually will
serve as the record of evolution of the project. The goal is not to
have anything that's heavy, and that we might eventually be able to
automate some data gathering but for the meantime it's not overly
onerous and provides some visibility we have not yet had to date.

The proposals are all here:

http://docs.codehaus.org/display/MAVEN/All+Proposals

And they basically move from draft -> pending -> approved. I've put
some notes in the diagram and I figured we could start with a simple
proposal to see how it works and iron the kinks as we go. This is
experimental but I see it as the best way forward for getting a clear
view of what's going on

Thanks,

Jason
