Purpose

    • Commits / Building
    • Updates filing
    • CI/User feedback (waving results needs to be better)
    • Orphaning (orphaned.package file/listener?)
    • Retiring
  • Make such changes as we can do today, file bugs/get started on any others and note them.
  • Once any changes are made or planned on above:
    • Decide if we want to update wiki docs or move to some better place?
    • Identify wiki docs that need updating based on popularity.
    • Check db dump for strings that need indicate pages need update
    • Possibly decide to delete some pages
    • Note where things will change
  • Document what things we updated and changed and send to devel announce that docs/workflows are hopefully better.
