I'm interested. Anyone else?? The email lists are great for discussion, but most of 0.7 topics will require more than just a free-flow discussion. They are complex enough that it will be a huge aid if there was a single place that someone can drop into at any time and get an overview of the issue, the target release, the status, the background & concepts, the decisions made / code written, the open issues / needed code, etc. (just like PEPs) http://dev.zope.org/ is a good model, although it's obviously larger and more complex than we can manage. We should keep the number of pages to a minimum so we don't run into a gardening problem later on. I was thinking of a central page that provides an overview plus index of open/closed projects and then a single structured page for each topic/project. Each project would have a clearly defined scope and release target (e.g. 0.7). The index would list the current status of each topic. This information would be repeated on the topic's page. Does this sound reasonable? Here's several topics we could start with: * the regression testing suite for Webware that Chuck mentioned * the URL/path parsing issue that's being discussed on Webware-devel: http://www.geocrawler.com/lists/3/SourceForge/9552/0/6904216/ * what to do with one-shot * migrating to distutils (package structure, etc.) I think each topic/project should have a 'leader' like on dev.zope.org that is responsible for keeping the project's index entry and the status blurb up to date.
