Goals for 2007 redesign

  • Rebuilding needs to be faster.
    • Global rebuilds could be very fast. (But just looping over the entire directory tree, doing no work at all, may take 30 seconds. This seems infeasible. XXX Verify that time figure.)

  • Continue supporting reST and hand-written HTML; we'll continue working on killing off the HTML.
  • Should be possible to include Wiki pages.
  • Easier to build: use the current best-of-practice YAML parser, whatever that may be, etc.
