Triage (http://plugins.guifications.org/trac/wiki/Triage)

This Thursday, May 17th, 2007, we will be triaging our Plugins Trac.
There's quite a lot that needs to get cleaned up.

Issues To Address:
    * Tickets!
    * Any remaining instances of Gaim
          o Besides history, no this doesn't count!
    * User Permission Issues:
          o How to solve the spam issue
          o Wiki editing permissions
                + Should users be allowed to?
    * Review Channel Guidelines
    * Determine policy for adopting plugins
    * Determine source viewing issues
          o You can't browse our source from the site
    * Discuss Plugins:
          o I10N plugin
                + Like our old I18N page, but integrated into trac.
                + This will need to be written, but can be done simply.
          o Simple Ticket
          o Spam-Filter
          o Mailman
                + This is more of a "it'd be nice", and have to be
		  written
          o Planet
                + Finish the plugin and set it back up?
          o New Download Plugin
                + The current one sucks horribly for our use case
          o Theme Plugin
                + This needs to be installed and we need a new theme
		  created, see below.
          o Last.fm
                + We have a http://www.last.fm/ group do we want to
		  integrate that in as well?
          o seti at home
                + We have a seti at home team. Right now it's just Gary
		  Kramlich and John Bailey so is integration even worth
		  it?
          o Guifications Theme
                + I would like a plugin that made it easier for people
		  to upload and maintain their guifications themes.
                + This may not be worth it since we're only keeping it
		  working, but we do still have semi active theme
		  development.
    * Discuss Continuous Integration again
          o This would probably be BuildBot, which IIRC has a trac
	    plugin.
    * RDBMS
          o Should we change from SQLite? If so, to MySQL or Postgres?
                + Should we drop the ticket history, or some part of it?
		  Most of our bugs are Windows specific Guifications
		  bugs that we really can't fix.
    * Theme
          o We need a decent one. Originally I was going to use a
	    similar theme to developer.pidgin.im but they went ahead and
	    used their header which I don't think we really want to use.

Developers,
	If you could please be around Thursday afternoon, like 5-6pm GMT-6 to
help, that would be awesome.

Users,
	If you would like to help, please feel free to respond with found
typos, out of date material, plugin thoughts, anything else related, to
respond on either plugins-devel at lists.guifications.org or in
#guifications on irc.freenode.net.

If you know python and the trac api, and are willing to help write some
of these plugins, please let us know and we can throw together some more
specific details.

Thanks,
