Thanks for raising this up again. I'm not going to make my nominations with this post, but rather a methodological suggestion. Mailing lists are good to discuss things, but not for deciding; they usually work for that when one solutions can be arguably proven better than the others. In our case I fear that the thread can diverge. What about the following 2 phases: 1) prepare a list of nominations, maybe as a page on cocanwiki 2) vote on them using a Doodle poll Of course, since we are a do-ocracy and you are doing the work, the vote will be by no mean constraining; but I assume you are interested in collecting the desire of the community, otherwise you wouldn't have started this thread in the first place. I think that a wiki page + a vote can give us they same feedback you could have got on the list, and we will avoid tons of AOL messages :-) Just my 0.02€ Cheers. -- Stefano Zacchiroli -*- PhD in Computer Science ............... now what?
