That is not the scalable community approach that has been successful in other areas of development. You might as well say, "Just tell me all the features you need and I'll implement them." Now *that* would make it easy for other people. Once upon a time we thought that documentation wasn't important or that is was hindering people to get involved. I think that has largely been disproven and we have been very successful with the "document the code when you write it" approach. The same approach can be used for the release notes. -- Peter Eisentraut peter_e@gmx.net
