Mike may know something i don't though. Dennis, it is true that the resources of the Infrastructure Project (IP) are low and officers are working in 10K tasks.. But, for every problem we could try to find a solution so I'll try to suggest something; better than keeping the thoughts to myself, right? Lately we've seen a wave of new members in the IP looking for ways to contribute to the project (especially after Mike's invitation email). I think most of them haven't had the "chance" to really contribute (please correct me if I am wrong). I just have the feeling that the IP has a lot of manpower that is left unused. I believe suggestions, like the one Rahul is pointing out, are excellent ways of handing responsibilities to people; at least for the design phase. So, to make it more clear: Let's assume an experienced person lays down requirements and a rough roadmap for such a platform and an officer or other members of the IP are willing to sponsor a person or a team of 2 to investigate the feasibility of such a project. Are there any team members that might be willing to tackle this? Just trying to see the glass half-filled... :) -d -- Dimitris Glezos Jabber ID: glezos@xxxxxxxxxx, GPG: 0xA5A04C3B http://dimitris.glezos.com/ "He who gives up functionality for ease of use loses both and deserves neither."
