requirement list for porteus-0.5

or "What I'd like to see us get done by LWESF".

Below is a list of the criteria against which I would like to measure
porteus-0.5. This list has been created with the thought that we want
something to show people at LinuxWorldExpo in August. Porteus-0.5 will
be based on the current Python implementation of portage. 

Why version 0.5? Because we don't have time to do everything I think we
should have for a 1.0 release. 

Features:

      * support for syncing to the zynot tree layout via rsync
      * support for syncing multiple tree overlays and logic to resolve
        conflicts when more than one overlay provides a package (see
        algorithm in this thread:  
        http://forums.zynot.org/viewtopic.php?t=225)
      * 100% API documentation in "PyDoc format"
      * a (possibly primitive) test harness in place and 100% line
        coverage
      * a HOWTO for installing [insert our distro name here] (this is
        really an item for the docs folks, but I think it should be a
        requirement).


Please see the link below for a tentative roadmap/schedule

Comments and questions are welcome.
Thanks.
nall.
