TODO tasks for the current iteration
Release process
The following is the approximate plan for the next full point release.
Before each release we hope to have the following done. More may get done, depending on the interest of the volunteers, but this is the current minimum.
The aim of this release cycle is to produce a functionally identical version to the 1.0.1 release, but bug-fixed and fully compatible with PHP 5.0.5+ under E_STRICT. We are also hoping to flush out issues and use cases caused by people hacking against unpublished flex points in SimpleTest. We want to break people's code now, not while we are developing features down the line.
With the website move to a new server, and more developers, we are able and need to improve the test automation and developer cooperation. This release is a deep drawing of breath before going forward.
