Since i cannot probably take part of it then i'm gonna answer right here right now shortly.
1. Just released new version! 2. I'm not sure about that time constraint. I wouldn't set up such a time constraints. At least not for myself. I have already enough time-constraints in my personal and work life and don't see that any additional ones would help. I'd restate the question as "What are you planning to do next?" :) Anyway, i can see four main things which we could do regarding Watir: - remove ActiveSupport dependency from FireWatir (Charley has been doing that for some time now - ask him the 3rd question) - remove dependencies for win32/api and AutoIt - here my RAutomation [1] lib could help... i guess i just have to start integrating it into Watir... since this will be a big change then it has to be tested more.. any ideas how to do that? Anyone wants to test it with me straight from the GitHub master while i'm moving forward step by step? - add support for Ruby 1.9.x - maybe the previous step will do that fine since we have seen some people recompiling win32/api gem for 1.9.2 and it has been working - so if the dependency for win32/api is removed then there should be support for 1.9.2 too (RAutomation has tested on 1.8.6, 1.8.7, 1.9.1, 1.9.2 MRI and JRuby 1.5.x). - bugs in jira should be taken one by one starting from the oldest and see if they're still relevant by actually digging into the code and then fix/close them or write some additional information to the jira comments section 3. personal life and other interesting personal projects, so i'd say general time constraints. Whenever i feel it and have time for it, then i'm looking towards improving something in Watir.
