Please nominate features and I will summarize what was reported back to the community. I will then do the "dirty work" of compiling and matching it to the CVS commits and the email discussion:) Of course all my findings and writings will be public as well.
Karim,
I was thinking that one possible way to do this, could be that you compile a list, based on the cross-correlation between the CVS logs (too granular) and the changes.xml file (eventually still too granular) and then we filter it out here.
The reason for this is that, honestly, I don't remember *when* something was added :-) so indicating a period of time is rather hard for us to correlate with specific features (several blocks were added, for example, but don't remember which ones).
CVS/SVN logs contain all that information, it's just a matter of filtering it out. A way to do this would be to remove all the logs that resulted in a few lines of code of change.
Ah, note that if you use "svn log -v --xml" you get an xml format of the logs and you can use cocoon to filter that out ;-)
Seriously, I think asking for a list of features correlated with time yields a "bah, can't remember" answer, while a list of things to look at might allow us to say "oh yeah, that one".
WDYT?
