I didn't used the poll because is way too informal and brief. I think the newsgroups *are* part of the DIPs, I suggested doing all the discussion in the NG. I didn't knew about the FeatureRequestList wiki page, I'm sorry about that, but I still think it's too informal too. I think DIP can be seen as a more formal version of the same thing there. As I said in other mail, I think Bugzilla could be a good choice, but it's a little too restricted to write a proposal because of the lack of format; and because proposals get lost in a sea of bugs. I guess this can be addressed doing a meta-bug as an index for proposals or something, but I think that separating bugs and proposals is a good thing. > I think what we need is to consolidate all the still-open feature > proposals from these various systems into something that achieves the > best of all five worlds.

I'll tackle that when the need comes. -- Leandro Lucarella (luca) | Blog colectivo: http://www.mazziblog.com.ar/blog/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- GPG Key: 5F5A8D05 (F8CD F9A7 BF00 5431 4145 104C 949E BFB6 5F5A 8D05) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Long you live and high you fly And smiles you'll give and tears you'll cry And all you touch and all you see Is all your life will ever be.
