For openacs 5.3, documentation will play a significant role, especially with the introduction of XoTcl. There will be the "classic" (current) approach to developing applications and there will be the OO (XoTcl) approach. This will mean two sets of documentation. The current documentation process is already a problem, having another set of documentation to maintain will just be doubling the problem.
I think we have an opportunity here to write some good documentation, and standard approaches to developing openacs applications using XoTcl. To get things rolling, I suggest having the notes (xonotes?) package reimplemented using XoTcl, as most openacs development practices stem from the notes package. This will probably be the first thing I'll do when trying to get my head around XoTcl. When I get around to it, I'll try and document the process, and post it in the wiki.
