First off, apologies for flooding all of your inboxes with hundred's of updates from JIRA. I must admit on my own email client (Thunderbird) I've just set up a message filter to separate them out away from the regular isis-dev conversations. You might want to do likewise.

What I've been doing, though, is creating tickets for all the work that I see that still needs to be done for r0.1. I've also been through our original Apache proposal [1] and raise placeholder tickets for the roadmap that we outlined there.

If you go to the open issues page on Jira [2] you'll see that I've characterized all the tickets by component, and I've also put in releases for 0.1, 0.2 (and 0.3, currently empty). There are also a number of tickets that unscheduled .

And, if you go to the roadmap view [3] then you can see which of these tickets need to be done for 0.1.

Anyway, the point of this email is to ask for volunteers ;-)

Most of the tickets I've lumped under ISIS-20 [4], which is an umbrella for subtasks relating to all the various modules that need attention. In most cases it's a matter of getting the DocBook documentation sorted out, but ISIS-20 outlines the main points. I've copied this info into each of the subtasks also for convenience.

I appreciate that a lot of that documentation is gonna need to be done by Rob and myself, and for those modules I've assigned the corresponding to task to either Rob or myself. For the remaining ones I've left them open... what I'm hoping is that some of you might step forward to help out ;-)

But wait, there's more! I spent yesterday working on a "contributor's guide", which captures lots of good stuff in it, like coding standards and also how to write documentation either using APT and DocBook.

To build this:
1. cd .../isis/trunk
2 svn up .
3. mvn site-deploy -D deploy=local -o # just enough to build the parent project
4. navigate to /tmp/m2-sites/isis/docbkx/guide/isis-contributors-guide.pdf.

I'd appreciate it if:
(a) you could review it and either provide feedback/improve it as you see fit (under ISIS-43), and (b) also inwardly digest it so we're all "on the same page" with respect to the above ticket.

Many thanks!
Dan
