Hi all,

According to our RoadMap[0] August 13, 2005 is the targetted release
for 1.0. The main items that need to be finished are:

* ISO
  # Mostly bug-free ISO[1]
  # Repeatable ISO generation scripts (currently two projects on this)

* Sorcery
  # API fully documented and on-line[2]
  # man pages and help info up-to-date (not sure if this is done as
    it's still marked for Karsten to do)
  # Improved Sorcery upgrade mechanism (any ETA on this?)
  # Additions to state information (what additions, can this be
    commented on more?)
  # Improved dispel support
  # Seth's alter script
  # Optional grimoire depends
  # Remaining bugs[3]

* Grimoire
  # Fix high priority bugs[4]
  # No upper-case spells left in the stable grimoire[5]
  # Remove duplicate dependencies[6]
  # All spells use config_query instead of query and/or read.
    Bugs should be filed for any packages that fail this requirement.
  # All variables in spells should be defined as local (except for
    config_query stuff).
    Bugs should be filed for any packages that fail this requirement.
  # Updated Grimoire Guru's Handbook[7]

* Web/Tome
  # Migrate website to a CMS (Drupal is the current choice)
  # Put the website in a SCM (I currently have a local copy, but it's
    not in Perforce yet)
  # Setup a distributed and replicated system
  # Link mail lists, usenet, and forums. (e.g. gmane?)

* Quality Assurance
  # Update Prometheus[8] to latest stable Sorcery
  # Run Prometheus on entire stable grimoire release and fix bugs
    found for the 1.0 release.

* Security
  # Any Security Team items? None are listed.

* Public Relations
  # Any Public Relations Team items? None are listed.

If someone would be kind enough (preferably the Leads/members of the
respective teams) to go through and add links to bugs to the RoadMap
(and file bugs for items that don't have a bug yet) that'd be great.
:) I'll try and do this as well, but I'm not as familiar with the
teams as the Leads/members are/should be. ;)

We have roughly a month left, think we can do it? Shall we push it
back more ('till when?), change the criteria, or both?
