Multitasking is a bit difficult. Maybe I learn to avoid it some day... ;)

I fully agree and want to thank you for the road map. Maybe we should 
start with discussing 2. and 5. subjects first as they don't need any 
other work apart from discussion. When we nail down these issues, then we 
may push needed documents to kicad-doc tree and really ordered work can 
start. Others doing the needed implementation may do their work 
independent of these policy issues and I think the productivity will be at 
it's best then. In multiple threads and on special purpose processors.. ;)

It would be nice to make a really polished release for the next Ubuntu 
LTS, would it?
