Quite a while ago (back when Maxime and I were working on it) I set up
a Pivotal Tracker project for WebPositive. For those who don't know,
this is an agile software development tool that I've found very useful
in my professional development work.

So I'd like to resurrect the Pivotal Tracker project for WebPositive
to maybe help plan and drive future development.

First, for those who don't know, we currently have a WebPositive
specific Trac install here:

http://webpositive.haiku-os.org

In general I'd like to phase this out in favor of using the standard
Haiku Trac at http://dev.haiku-os.org, as well as Pivotal Tracker. But
rather than transfer the existing tickets to the main Haiku Trac, I'll
leave them open on the old site but make matching tasks/bugs in
Pivotal Tracker. I'll do the same for existing Web+ bugs and
enhancements on the Haiku Trac. This will sort of make Pivotal Tracker
the central place for WebPositive tasks.

Anyhow, here is the Pivotal Tracker project for WebPositive:

https://www.pivotaltracker.com/projects/14294

It is a public project so anyone should be able to view it, but I
believe to add tasks and otherwise edit it, you will need a Pivotal
Tracker account and I'll need to add you to the project. If anyone
wants to be added (even just to create or organize tasks), just set up
a Pivotal Tracker account and let me know your email for that account.

Currently there are just a few legacy tasks from May 2009 (!) as I
have not yet started pulling tasks from the various Tracs. Since
Pivotal Tracker has an API and I'm a developer, I'll probably create a
tool to create the tasks or bugs from the two Tracs :)

Also I plan to set up labels for the various major areas which we need
to work on, such as networking, the build tools, html5 audio/video,
etc. This will make it very easy to find all the tasks in those areas.

I hope to work on the tool to transfer tasks this weekend, so
hopefully the project will be more filled-out by next week.
