Notes
Preparation for 0.5

Publicity and Documentation
- Lots of work needed to be done
- Heather made 0.5 documentation page in Wiki which links to important pages
- Mitcho will be working on wiki pages for...
- converting commands to Parser 2 api
- updating author tutorial
- making your commands localize-able and localizing commands
- Let's do as much of the documenting as we can by Monday. On Tuesday we will focus on finishing any documentation that didn't get done.
Localization discussion
- Decided on a single method for rendering templates using CmdUtils.renderTemplate
- have _() wrap output in renderTemplate
- mitcho's example: if _("template ${var}",{var:var}), run it through renderTemplate
Things not included in 0.5
- Data Collection will be a 0.6 thing
- Plug-in provider verbs not essential for this release. Can be released as a smaller thing after 0.5 (like 0.5.1).
