Hi everyone

I've repeatedly written that we are working on a solution. We don't
like a wiki hosted by a private person. We want an own solution. It
will come. But I really don't know why you are so interested in a
wiki. It will improve the situation. Yes. But there is no reason why
not to contribute to the documentation stuff already. A wiki is just a
different platform.
I agree - wikis are a "nice to have", but not really that essential or
highly beneficial at this stage.
where is the bugtracker (same as wiki)
The same as the previous item.
Unlike with wikis, I disagree about issue tracking. Further to my last
post on the topic (of 8 March), an issue tracker would resolve many of
the perceived problems of lead time, issues going "dead", people being
unable to contribute fixes, voting on items for inclusion in the core
code, comments about stability, identifying bugs in proposed patches,
receiving user bug reports for existing releases, preparing a roadmap
for future releases etc. A lot of concerns expressed in the current
thread seem to be people being unable to edit the "contrib" directory.
With an issue tracker this problem just goes away, as the code lives in
the issue tracker until it's "ready".
I am unclear why we cannot get an issue tracker online quickly and in
doing so get a lot of project management value for minimal effort. Can
someone please expand - is there disagreement an issue tracker will
help? I can thoroughly recommend JIRA, which we use as part of a free
open source service from Contegix
(http://www.contegix.com/about/community.action). Contegix is not a
"private person", and many large and successful open source projects use
them for JIRA (including some open source projects that I'm involved
in). If the project would like a quality issue tracker, we can get one
for free and virtually immediately. Please let me know if this is of
interest, as I'm only too happy to approach Matthew Porter of Contegix
on behalf of the project.
Best regards
Ben
