So in my attempt to try and catch up (after having been away for over  
4 months), I wanted to clarify a few details about the Chandler  
Desktop 1.0 plan. After looking through all the info, bugs and email,  
I am a bit confused. I had a number of questions/clarifications about  
the plan and process and thought I would send to the list so others  
can benefit from the discussion.

Basically I am trying to wrap my head around what is in 1.0, the  
tenets, the priorities and when we think it will be released.

+ What are the tenets for 1.0?

+ So per the milestone schedule on http://chandlerproject.org/bin/ 
view/Projects/ChandlerMilestoneSchedule, we have releases 0.7.4 on  
Jan 9th and 0.7.5 on Feb 6th.  It's my assumption that 0.7.5 is what  
we are calling our 1.0 release. Is this correct? I am assuming that  
all the work we want to do for 1.0 is scattered over multiple  
milestones ( 0.7.3, 0.7.4 etc)

+ How are we setting the priorities for what gets worked on first?  
Before I left we were using P1 and P2s for the tasks and high  
priority bug fixes (must haves for the release) and P3s etc could be  
punted. Is this still the case?

+ Looking at Mimi's write up on 1.0
(http://chandlerproject.org/Notes/OneDotZeroDesktopBugs) I noticed  
that many items have been fixed (yipee) and many of the bugs are  
targeted P3 and P4. If the product team feels some of these are must  
haves for 1.0, what's the process to get these upgraded? I am still  
assuming that most P3s and P4s won't get done.

+ Mimi's write-up deals with the usability stuff but I am assuming  
there are other features architecture work, dev items. Do we have  
that list and how is this prioritized? What is driving the tenets, is  
it Mimi's write up? http://chandlerproject.org/Notes/ 
OneDotZeroDesktopBugs

+ In looking at the bug list...there are 64 bugs for 0.7.4 and 197  
for 0.7.future. I assume that the bugs for 0.7.5 are going to be  
taken from the pool of 0.7.future bugs. I am wondering how we are  
going to narrow the list for 0.7.5 since clearly 197 is probably too  
many. Are we going to scope that down? If so, when. Does this list  
match up with the tenets? Who is reconciling this?

In summary, I am trying to reconcile the 1.0 plan with what is in  
bugzilla and a release date of early feb and it seems like things  
don't line up. It could be I have missed a number of emails/ 
conversations so clarification would be helpful.

Thanks,
Sheila
