   I wrote a long e-mail to #NLNet yesterday, answering questions they have about my #moggie / #mailpile v2 development plans.

   How did I come up with X months? It's just how much time I have available! Do I have a roadmap? Not really, but it's in my head? Do I plan collaboration with other projects? Not just yet, I'm being introverted and stealthy still?

   Not sure it's what they wanted to hear, but honesty is the only policy. I gave lots of details.

   But maybe I *should* publish a better roadmap?

     @teleclimber @HerraBRE I didn't give any specific dates, but I drew up a rough roadmap. To which I attached rough pricepoints.

     @alcinnz @HerraBRE Adrian didn't you get funding through NLNet recently? Would love to hear whether you gave specific dates/roadmaps if you're willing to share. Thanks!

     @chrysn I know. I burned out pretty badly during the Mailpile v1 dev cycle, in part due to pressure I put on myself by publishing roadmaps and making promises I failed to keep.

     So I've been granting myself the luxury of just developing quietly and not publishing much this time around.

     That will have to change at some point, the entire point of this is to write and publish code and docs and offer something useful to the community.

     But I'm still not in any rush.

     @HerraBRE I should probably not be talking given my NGI application was not granted, but an itemized dump of "what's in your head" with a little sorting can already make a good base roadmap.
