Wiki = Group whiteboard

Zope could do a lot of this stuff well.  As is, ZWiki offers some
organizational features.  I've held off on pushing them because they're
still baking - things like change notifications, discretion about change
privileges, versions (with differences, based on your ndiff.py), etc are
coming soonish.  (Exactly how soonish is hard to say, the way time and
more direct business obligations are - but this stuff actually is
important to us, we're using them a lot for collaboration, and need for
the dynamics to scale...)

I also have the feeling that our tracker would be good for patch
management - except, i don't really know what the requirements are, there,
and once again, tracker only gives notifications via email, it doesn't
take input that way.

Anyway, to see leads on both zwikis and tracker, see:

Oh, and it would be easy to set up a wiki for python dev on zope.org
somewhere - i could put it in my account, or we could situate one more
centrally, in a storage that's never packed, so the version history is
maintained.  Or any of you could get a zope.org membership and set some
up, yerselves.  Or set up a zope somewhere - it'd be !cool! if sourceforge
were willing...
