A list with that name allready exists, therefore I don't want to say that this list "would define" the TTT However, any admin is of course welcome to feed a part of the TTT with idea from that new list.

I do admit the first paragraph is huge, but it serves the purpose of scaring away un-serious people. And I find the wiki Table of content format problematic in such case, see : http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/API_v0.7 You first read "At this point, we're brainstorming new/changing features for API version 0.7." and then you jump to real ideas, forgeting to read the "Brainstorming" importante part.

I don't know, and don't really care as long as the title express what it is, but if someone finds a title fullfeeling both objectiv, I'll be glad to change ! > Perhaps something like Community wishlist or > similar?

Unless if you come with something nice ?
