[Alexandria-list] New design phase

[Cathal Mc Ginley]

I'd like to kick-off this "new design phase" I've been talking about
since the first 0.6.2 betas. Joseph Method has set up a lot of the new
design support architecture I was considering:

 * A wiki at http://wiki.alexandria-projects.org/wiki/Alexandria
 * A 'Planet' aggregator at http://planet.alexandria-projects.org/
which, at the moment, brings together his "Alexandria Project Blog" and
my own journal "mind can has mountains"!

I will continue to spend some time working on a 0.6.3 maintenance
release, touching up a few usabililty problems and genuine snags. (And
I'd like to thank Lennart at this point for his excellent work in
finding these issues on the Tracker amongst all the out of date
reports.) But I'll be concentrating on a core redesign. 

Users of Alexandria can help by trying to formalize their various
requirements for a book collection manager directly on the wiki:
http://www.gnostai.org/journal/2007/12/31/requirements-gathering-on-the-alexandria-wiki/
Design ideas are also welcome, but don't get bogged down in
implementation details at this stage.

Hmmm, that's all for now.

   -   Cathal.
