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.

We will have our own hosting solution for a bugzilla installation. This is already prepared for some weeks now. We don't want to cancel the preparation done here.

Sebastian
