Subject: 1.1 Task list [DRAFT] -- Was: Re: [pLog-svn] How do you feel about
development for 1.1?

Hello,

as promised, see the task list for 1.1 below based on the feedback collected
from the mailing lists, and some feature requests already slated for 1.1 in
Mantis. I've broken up some of the biggest items into smaller ones:

- Performance improvements
	- Implementation of a disk-based data cache
	- Optimization of the SQL queries in order to improve the non-cached
situations
- FIeld to upload files ad-hoc in the "add resource" window
- Blog global categories
- Article global categories
- Replace Htmlarea with Xinha
- Implement new types of custom fields
(http://bugs.plogworld.net/view.php?id=163)
- Changes to trackbacks:
	- Merge comments and trackbacks into the same table
	- Integration of the anti-spam filter with trackbacks
	- Save the IP address of trackbacks
(http://bugs.plogworld.net/view.php?id=384)
- Custom fields for resources
- Everything should be searchable
	- Integration of a search feature for links
	- Integration of a search feature for categories
	- Integration of a search feature for blogs
	- Integration of a search feature for users
- New pages to see all trackbacks and comments
- Mass edition of
	- Articles
	- Comments
	- Trackbacks
	- Resources
	- Links
- Improvements to the plugin framework
- Prevent referrer spam (http://bugs.plogworld.net/view.php?id=206)
- Improve the wizard script so that it can inform users that some
requirements are missing (http://bugs.plogworld.net/view.php?id=432 and
http://bugs.plogworld.net/view.php?id=366)
- Option to throw away big images and keep only resized versions
(http://bugs.plogworld.net/view.php?id=336)

Now this is a *lot* of stuff, much more than I ever hoped for a 1.1 release.
Also I hope I don't sound too harsh, but 60% of these items do not interest
me at all so if you're really interested in seeing feature X in pLog, please
consider making an effort and develop it yourself.

If you agree with the list above (let me know if I forgot everything), I
will key them into Mantis and then feel free to pick the ones you'd like to
work on. We can review the situation in 1-2 months and see how things are
going.
