Hi OpenACS Team,

Can you update us on the ACS 4.0 porting effort?  Is there an updated
timeline?  Thanks!

Very fair question. A few issues have been discussed, and we
are moving along, but more needs to be done. I will give a more
in-depth update tonight, in response to this very question on this
bboard.

The porting effort has mostly consisted of chatting design issues
for now. We need to accelerate this and get down to business
soon with actual porting, although once the main issues are
resolved, the actual porting will be extremely quick.

I'm not going to issue an updated timeline, because we need to
gather the troops and find out exactly how things will progress....
The open-source method means that we can't plan this precisely
just yet, given that we don't know exactly what team members'
availability will be.

For those interested in contributing, download ACS 4.0, check it
out ,and post all design issues to the OpenACS 4.0 bboard!
Don't be afraid to post any design issues you find important! So
keep an eye on the OpenACS 4.0 bboard and discussions.
