The theory is that we coordinate this through the dev wiki, with
people's home pages carrying their personal todo lists. Granted I
haven't updated mine for a long while, but I'm going through lots of
personal stuff at the moment.

Do you have acces to trac? If not, prod Dom with an htpasswd.

Ideally we _should_ all be sharing our code changes with the rest of the
OpenGuides community. Unfortunately, there are some extremely forked
code bases out in the big wide world, which is making upgrades difficult
for some.

I'm a firm believer in a single code base and repository. I'm also a
firm believer that the dev wiki is the place to put informtion about
what we are working on. I will update my personal todo list before the
end of the weekend. I encourage others on list who have accounts on trac
to do likewise.

Probably not the case, but I'll certainly be (re)moving items of mine
which say they are in progress, which aren't.  Anyway, I don't think
there's a hive of activity on OG and Wiki::Toolkit right now, so as far
as I'm concerned, go for it.

We had a flurry of activity in December, with the Oxford hackfest and
immediatey afterwards.

It may be worth touching base with Dom about any major changes or
releases in the pipeline.

Welcome back, we missed you.
