Call to arms: Tinderbox 3.0

Since the 2.x branch is officially closed, I want to fast-track a 3.0
release.  There are some minor features I plan to add this weekend, then
I want to start focusing on what needs to be done to make TB 3.0 a
reality.

The good news is since people like miwi are using it pretty extensively,
I think 3.0 is in fairly good shape.  The tasks I see need which need to
be done are as follows:

* Check for documentation completeness, and fill in any holes.

* Decide on how upgrades will be done.  Will they be automated like
between 1.x and 2.0, or should we simply instruct users to do a
wholesale replacement of 2.x with 3.0?  Left to me, I was just going to
document what needs to happen to install 3.0 from scratch, and forget
the upgrade.

* Create some beta and RC releases to check for regressions or other
bugs.

What other tasks are needed to make 3.0 a reality?  Anything obviously
wrong with the 3.0 base right now?  Anyone want to volunteer for either
of the former two tasks?

Joe
