PLAN OF ATTACK FOR DRIGG FROM MERC

Hi,

Please let's make sure that this issue is bumped up all the time.
I am trying to think of a suitable plan of attack on Drigg.
Drigg is actually three modules:

* Drigg
* EVF
* User Karma

My plan at the moment is to have ZERO issues open for User Karma and EVF as soon as physically possible -- possibly this week. The only features left should be some clear and implementable feature requests (the ones I am able to do) and some postponed ones (the ones I am NOT able to do without help).

Drigg is a different story. There are 106 issues open. Some of them are bugs. Some of them are simple support requests that really could be closed. Some of them are feature requests. The plan is to close EVERY bug as soon as possible, apply the existing patches, and do the same in terms of feature requests: have some open there (the ones I can do) and some postponed (the ones I need help with, especially the ones where Javascript is involved).

Friendlist, the other module that I passed on, has also been left undeveloped for 3+ months by the developer, but luckily he told me that he's about to work on it again. So that's one less thing to worry about.

I need hep for all this.

The first thing I need, is a list of link to all of the patches that are actually ready to be rolled. I won't be able to test them very carefully -- please help me with that. I will apply pretty much all of the patches.

After that, we need to triage the existing bugs. So, mark the most important ones as "critical", then the normal ones as "normal" and the others as "minor". Please start doing so now if you like. I will work through them ASAP.

I will be travelling in 1 week. I plan on getting done as much as possible before now and then, so that we can all see where we are heading.

After that, we will need to think of some kind of revenue model for Drigg. People with established Drigg sites might just chip in $150/month for example -- even 10 sites like that will justify me working on Drigg full time for one week each month, which would be great. (But I would do more than that, obviously, time permitting).

Let's get this mess sorted out.

Merc.
