Feature proposal process?



Hi,

According to the calendar, with the upcoming 3.8 release, we will soon be in feature proposal again.

I was recently asked how to propose a feature for GNOME, and my first instinct was to point them to https://live.gnome.org/ReleasePlanning - the "Proposing new modules" page is out of date, and has not been updated with the process for feature proposal.

I did find https://live.gnome.org/ThreePointNine/Features but this page contains instructions warning people against modifying it, and provides no indication of where the features are being discussed.

So I looked through the archives of foundation-list, release-team and desktop-devel-list for last September and October to see where the discussions for 3.8 feature additions (listed here: https://live.gnome.org/ThreePointSeven/Features) happened. Unfortunately, I did not find any discussions, except one contentious one related to fallback mode which mclasen brought to d-d-l.

I know that there were discussions about this around the 2.28/2.30 timeframe but I have not found the discussions with an (admittedly brief) search.

Can someone point me to where discussion of new features happens, please, and help me help this person propose a new feature?

Thanks!
Dave.
