If you're really willing to see Maypole stabilize, I'd love to see what you
can do with it. :) I kind of handed over Maypole on the idea that the design
was basically good, and what I thought such a framework should be, and it just
needed maintaining - not rearchitecting. I guess I gave it to the wrong guy;
such is the danger of free software.
To be blunt, I haven't really kept up with the changes from my last release up
until 2.0 - my feeling has been that I have a copy on my hard disk that works,
even if people fuck up Maypole from then on.
I think it would be good to take 2.x and (a) check for backwards
compatibility, and (b) consolidate everything so that it all works as
advertised in a relatively backwards-compatible way.
There is room for a Maypole 3.0, and I had some ideas about how it should go -
I posted them to the list before I left, but Sebastian has ignored them. But
I'd quite like to see a "taking stock" release first.
