Just to bring out a quick discussion Rahul and I were having on IRC, I'm not sure we want to include that in this particular announcement. Although the subject matter is a good fit, right now we don't have the infrastructure in place to support a resurgence of Legacy. (Let's leave aside the issue of whether anyone actually wants to *do the work*.) Rahul and I are in agreement, I think, that with the merge and other related work currently being done feverishly by the release team, it might be easier for contributors to do this work and *not* be separate from the rest of the project. But IMHO if we raise that issue now, the current state of affairs becomes a blocker issue, and that just means more unnecessary pressure on the release team. Since this issue probably has legs -- meaning that *someone* is going to raise it again, as they do every release -- I think we're safe leaving it out for now, and we can put it on the table after the SCM and other infrastructure consolidation is ready. Then it just becomes a matter of turning the idea momentum into action. If contributors want it and are really going to do the work, they will be able to transition immediately into planning and execution, instead of "waiting on 'X' to be finished." -- Paul W.
