hello,

> You know that currently the main repository is on launchpad.net?

Currently the Google Code page says "Here you find only the
development version ...", while the Launchpad page says "Does not use
Launchpad for development."
That to me sounds like Google Code is the development repository.

Also I read in another thread we were migrating to mercurial on Google
Code. If not, then perhaps the Google Code page should be closed/
edited to avoid confusion.


> BTW - can you name _one_ feature request that has been "lost"?

People like Massimo probably read every thread and so would know all
of the requests. But if a less active user wants to help out they
can't easily find a list of outstanding issues. Here are some threads
I remember because I was interested in these features, so there are
certainly more:

- password retrieval has a confirmation email before resetting to
prevent abuse
- *stackoverflow like OpenID login API
- translation interface for non-admin users
- *IPv6 support for login to admin interface
- expose uploaded file naming function
- *logging functionality (problem with builtin logging module)
- *properly remove user, including roles, permissions, and session
cookies
- *appadmin like CRUD view
- reserved words problem when migrating between databases (will be
fixed in new DAL?)
- single click upgrade of web2py

(* means Massimo agreed in thread was a good idea)
Some of these have probably been addressed by now. With a feature
tracker I could easily determine the status.
