Extensions are going to be the big focus once we get 1.6 out the door. A lot of work has gone into it by many, many students through both UCOSP and GSoC, so that'll continue :) Webhooks will end up being an exension. We had some work toward refactoring it into an extension recently. Christian

The extensions work will still be 2.0. We will either end up going from 1.6 to 2.0, or we'll package a bunch of GSoC/UCOSP work as 1.7 while working on 2.0. Christian -- Christian Hammond - chip...@chipx86.com Review Board - http://www.reviewboard.org VMware, Inc. - http://www.vmware.com On

I quite agree. A lot of that needs to be finished up. For some of it, we've had students go and finish up the project (or at least get further on it) and we'll probably continue to do that. There's always, of course, the need to deliver an interesting project that a student can work on. Finishing

Hi Sam, I understand that this is something you want ASAP, having just gone through an install. However, it's important to know that for the moment at least, Review Board is in no way our full-time job. It's something we work on in the evenings and weekends when time permits, and really there's

@Alenxander, I mean no misunderstanding, I have no ill intent, just eagerness to use this program. So can I still apply with my idea - improvements of post-review tools? Or am supposed to use only ideas from the list? Should I present a patch that would fix one of RB issues or should I post

Hi Alexander, You can apply with any idea that you like. We can certainly go over things, and fine-tune the idea during the selection process with you. It doesn't have to be an idea from this list. We just can't select any projects until the selection process begins, and will have to sort through

Agreed. We have a prototype Windows installer, which gets you part of the way there on a standard Windows setup. What's needed at that point is, I think, a graphical front-end to rb-site, like we have on Linux. For Linux (and this carries to Windows as well), I'd like to eventually see the

Does it mean that you reject ReviewBoard CLI project? If you need more details I can provide it here. I spoke with other RB users and at least one of them said it would be a good idea. Mostly, because console interface makes it possible to add non-web GUI on the top of it. And a GUI in turn having

The installation work is an entirely separate body of work from the post-review proposal. It's not one or the other. However, we tend to get 15+ applications each year, and can only accept generally 3 or 4, so I can't promise anyone at this point that they'll be accepted. We won't be able to make
