I'm surprised there's nothing in here about improving packaging or
installers. I thought I added it during the earlier stages, but I guess
not. I think those are very important - were I not already part of the
project given a jar to install it I wouldn't download it. Our OS X
installer is good, and our Windows installer is basically okay, but our
support for other platforms is not native packages, which is bad. I'd
like to have a Debian/Ubuntu package to offer at least. I've kept 63
points unallocated; I'd like to put those toward improving Linux
packaging to the point that we can offer it for download. I couldn't get
LibreOffice to export a readable CSV so I've attached a PDF.

Additionally, I think many of us - myself included - had been
approaching this as "what do we want xor to do?" I think we should look
into whether alternative people to xor make sense, and to that end
Stephen Oliver (mrsteveman) has expressed interest. He's already written
the new OS X installer and tray application, has been contributing to
documentation and user support, and I've found him great to work with.
Thoughts?
