...I sent out a note a while ago now trying to scare up
some ideas on how to vet the current list of 2.6 proposals
and get to a final "plan". I didn't get much (any?) response :(
For a couple of things that were ready to go and fairly non
controversial (like Toby's unicode work), I put on the BDFL
hat and said "merge it!".
But there are still a lot of things on the proposed features
that are undone, and some that are controversial enough that
we need to get to closure on them.
I'll volunteer to convert the current proposed feature list
into a draft "plan", where the conversion boils down to
adding some columns to the table:
Proposal - name and link to the proposal
Resources - who is working on it
Committed - Y/N whether the volunteers have committed to have
the implementation and docs done by the first week
in June. I'll fill in what I know has been committed
to, people can update this (or let me know and I'll
do it), and anything that doesn't get a 'Y' in a
reasonably short time will be put in the cooler.
Vetted - Y / N whether the community and / or the relevant BDFLs
have come to some agreement on whether it *should* be
done. The list of items without a 'Y' will be our next
order of business. Getting to closure on those either
via the list, IRC, or whatever is the main block on the
critical path.
Status - Complete or incomplete
I've taken a first stab at this. I've set the "committed" to 'Y'
for those things that I know I've gotten commitments for. For
those set to 'N', please let me know if you can commit to the
date (or change it yourself in the wiki).
The updated plan is at:

Once we get the commitments up to date, we can start wrangling
with the vetting...
