Let's stay with this and only this topic :).
If we want features, we will have to KISS[1] :) Extracting data from the DOAP files is not a big deal at all, damned-lies already does it for some data, so another field will not be a problem. But here the bottleneck will be, as usual, the manual work, will maintainers update their doap week(s) before doing the release? My take will be to bring it on d-d-l and if they are fine with it, we should spread the word a bit and trying to educate maintainers to do this small step to make translators be aware of it. Coding wise, the simplest thing to do would be a list, sorted by due date, of modules soon-to-be-released. Generating icals, adding columns here and there, RSS feeds and more can be done later :) So, who sends the mail on d-d-l? :) Cheers, > *: unknown as of now, to be honest.
