  Subject: [Dynapi-Dev] API3,alpha


  I've been filtering thru and printing all non-duplicate threads so I =
can break down the input from all effectively.  I will probably produce =
a rough dicussion-brief divided into two key areas with subsections:

  1) DynAPI issues still requiring focus.
  2) DynAPI3alpha discussion brief which will include everyones inputs =
on "anything" topically related to the next-gen of this API.

  I will most likely distill the first draft as a PDF file that I hope =
stays under the 40K limit, but eventually we are gonna need a more =
colaborative environment probably located at the DynAPI homepage.  =
Thoughts on web-based colaboration tool options would be appreciated.  =
Might actually be something right here at Source Forge. =20

  This tool should allow for draft inputs and notations to a more text =
based document with supplemental drawings and diagrams (knew I had a =
special purpose here), I don't think the standard CVS will serve in that =
roll.

  Additionally, I think all thoses who would like to actively "be =
involved" in this "Planning Stage" should raise their hands now and =
express an interest, or throw a rock.  I recommend we develop a =
"start-team" of those interested to at least get us through the planning =
stages and to a presentable draft that can then be shared with everyone =
in a open forum.

  All of the above is of course subject to administrative change, I am =
just trying to create a better environment for an open-source team =
effort and I truely think having a "plan" is the best first step here.
