Hi:
I'd vote for two tasks, one for 0.6 (extending the detail view) and one
for what I thought CPIA was (e.g. blocks, trees of blocks, CPIA events,
etc.), which is not part of 0.6 and is postponed until there is
consensus to do it. I think there still might not be consensus on what
is appropriate for each task -- or at least my idea of what it is
doesn't seem to be shared by everyone. I'd be interested in suggestions
for parcels, other than flickr-like extensions, which we probably all
agree are appropriate, to see if there is consensus about which
extensions, if any, besides extending the detail view are appropriate.
As for what I should work on: I'd like to spend some time reviewing the
existing parcels -- I think I could make them a lot simpler. Also, if we
decide to document any code that I wrote I'd like to be involved in
documenting it.

Coming back to this thread, I wanted to summarize where I think we are
at...
(1) We observed an example of "review after commit" -- John correctly
backed out his changes based on feedback on the list. Bringing issues
like this to the list is appropriate, it is the right place to surface
conflicts and hash them out.
(2) The rough consensus is to not implement ViewableKind for 0.6, in
part because its too late for new infrastructure and in part because
we'd prefer to have the 0.6 "hello world" parcel align more closely
with the other sample parcels.
(3) We learned more (as a group) about annotations and how to think
about using them, and likely will come back to the discussion as we
continue to refine cpia (and other apis) in 0.7.
(4) We observed two goals (possibly conflicting) for the "hello world"
parcel that John is writing: a mechanism to help document cpia as a
framework, and an 0.6 document to get a parcel developer started
building flickr-like extensions to chandler. Philippe, John and a few
others are working on the first goal as an ongoing project, and the
second goal is essential to reaching our 0.6 objectives.
Philippe and John: if Bug 3229 is meant to satisfy the first goal,
should we create a separate task (with a different owner) for our 0.6
objectives? Or will the tutorial that John is writing meet both goals?
Cheers,
Katie
