Introduction
Edinburgh Release is the first planned feature release after the refactoring, development restructuring in DakarRelease. The release after that will be the FreetownRelease.Release Focus
The TWikiMission specifies the overall purpose of the project. Possible areas for the Edinburgh Release to focus on, in order to help TWiki leap forward:- Focus on customer centric features (e.g. features that help our target audience most)
- Examples: Syncronous edits, OO content access syntax
- Focus on innovation with compatibility in mind
- Examples: Generic web services interface, a J2EE/TWiki integration, web based updates of TWiki/Plugins/apps, relational database backend, portlet integration, event triggers
- Strengthen TWiki as an application platform
- New features and infrastructure supporting that
- Restructure Plugins web to be a marketplace for TWiki extensions (for free and for a fee)
- Specific Targets
Development Restructuring
Before the CoreTeam and TWikiCommunity dives into spec and coding work we should review the Development process, model and tools. See PostDakarDevelopmentModel, DakarDocumentationModelIsBroken, PostDakarTrackingAndDiscussion, OneSvnBranchPerRelease, ProcessForMarketDrivenInnovation.Edinburgh Release Meetings
Meetings are held in#twiki_edinburgh IRC channel.
