Hello,
is there already some place, where feature requests are collected and/or a
todo list? Perhaps something like bugzilla but simpler?
If not, what do you think about a page on the wiki?
TIA for your opinions, Peter

Hi Peter,
ATM, the best place to discuss wishes is here, on the list.
There is no global wish-list, only the personal todo lists
of the people that have agreed to implement various things
"sometime". The Wiki is just a bit too disorganized, I doubt
any requests posted there would get picked up.
In the past, there has been some talk about putting context
into some sort of repository (gforge/subversion) and using
the associated tracking features, but when/if this will happen
is not clear.
The portal effort by Michael Guravage appears to be abandoned.
Greetings, Taco

Hello Taco,
the problem with the list is, that often you don't really know at the end
of a thread, what is going to be done or not.
Just as an example, there has been a discussion¹ about repeated footers in
TABLE, but at the end I don't know, if it's possible or not.
Perhaps, a table like this (just an example) would be nice somewhere:
Feature request Comment
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
repeated footers in TABLE not possible
documentation for linetable scheduled for 2007
support for urw-garamond can be done by any volunteer
xxx in next version
yyy see elsewhere (link to another page)

I'm working with subversion and recommend it strongly. Especially for
you, there would be a great advantage: the automatic generation of a
ChangeLog (if the developers comment their commits).
Greetings, Peter

i will set up a subversion archive (context/manuals) soon on an internal server
which is accessisble then for dev. (but i'm not sure if i will comment comment
each commit, too busy with other things for that -)

Hello Hans,
3 or 4 words are often enough and very very useful when tracing the logs.
For example:
- speed-up with \setupXXX
- bug-fix with texexec-enginepath
- new file core-xxx.tex
- removed s-pre-1234.tex
Greetings and happy subversioning!
Peter

could be a wiki page; at least that way we collect things

We are discussing this now, and hope to come up with a solution soon.
