This document describes functionality that is either missing or not finished
within Turbine as well as the owners of implementing or coordinating the
implementation of these features.
Wish List functionality is stuff that we would like to see implemented, but is
not critical for release. This is the area where you can take ownership of a
part of the project and contribute back.
Critical Before Release is stuff that we feel is holding up the release of
Turbine.
If you are a new developer to Turbine or even an existing developer, these are
areas where you can take ownership and help complete. Please do not ask us how
you can help, but rather specific questions about how you think that these items
should be implemented. It is up to you to take initiative and provide solutions
to the missing functionality described below. ;-)
It is always possible to take ownership of any portion of the project. The way
to do this is to communicate with the owner of the portion and then come to some
sort of agreement about what portions you will be splitting up or taking over.
If you cannot get a response from the people in charge of the projects, assume
they are dead and fill yourself in.
Documentation is *always* appreciated in any form. There are two ways to provide helpful documentation. The first way is to write up XML documentation and send it to one of the primary authors directly (we are also
willing to give you CVS write access if you wish). The second way is to post
Questions/Answers to the
FAQ under the Turbine sections there. Please review the sections in the Turbine Documentation Project for ways to get started and areas of documentation needing attention. You need to take the initiative and just start writing down your thoughts and concerns and questions and answers and then giving those back to us.
If you need more detailed help, please send mail to the
mailing list and ask
your specific questions there.
