Excellent. I think we have consensus for a switch if/when we find a
dvcs we like.
However, I would like to say that I hope this discussion doesn't dissuade people from doing that UI work right now. Please please please don't wait on this, 'cause if we wait for the Next Big Thing we're going to wind up with no updated UI, once again. Not that I'm a cynic. ;)
Here is my current thinking, and I'd like to know what you all think
about this. Andrew created the mondernize_21_webui branch and
applied the xhtml and css patches to it. We could conceivably keep
these changes very conservative, i.e. just u/i and *possibly* the top
3 new features. Then we'd release this as Mailman 2.2 and rename the
really advanced work Mailman 3.0.
I know I've gone back and forth on all this numbering stuff, but if
we try really really really hard to keep our focus, I think we could
get out a 2.2 that looks and acts a lot like 2.1 but with a better
look and feel, as well as reducing a couple of big pain points.
Terri (who, uh, maybe, might sorta have some unfinished admin documentation that got left alone 'cause it seemed like MM3 had to be just around the corner... three years ago. ;) )
Guilty as charged. :)
Thoughts?
