Your wish list for Infusion 1.0?

This is a great list y'all!

What a wonderful start to our rounding out the 1.0 version of  
Infusion.  To be clear, this is planning for a release -- the work of  
Fluid and of Fluid Infusion will continue on beyond the end of March.   
Having said that, this is a big release for us -- the culmination of a  
lot of hard work by a great bunch.

Many of my wishlist items are already on the list which is wonderful:
documentation, documentation, documentation
	- one of my favorite things about Fluid is our commitment to being  
open and to sharing our work and our experiences with everyone.  We  
teach through our documentation and I see that as a very important  
part of growing our community.
	- packaging script.  This has been on a list of mine for quite a  
while -- it's a return-to item and I'm super-excited to see it on the  
list and to know it'll be there for 1.0
	- licensing. I'm thinking here of the kind of activities that we can  
do to ensure we've got clarity on licensing of any code we are working  
with.
	- website.  We're working now on getting a refresh to the current  
site.  We need to ensure we're showcasing the products of Fluid  
Project meaningfully and clearly.

That's what I have so far, but I'll continue to think wishful thoughts.

Thanks,
Jess
