As far as I can tell, there are a number of things that are in trunk or are 
being developed:

1) libdbi backend - in trunk.  I've been using it for a while now.
2) replace gtkhtml with webkit - I've just started on a branch
3) register rewrite - Charles Day has done a lot of work fixing up the 
register, but the rewrite is stalled (?)
4) change reports from being scm-generated html to html templates with 
embedded scm - a prototype invoice is in trunk
5) changes to saved reports - Andrew Sackville-West working on it?

I propose we start towards a release 2.4 with #1.  I think I have enough time 
to act as release manager, so I volunteer if required.

For 2.6 (date TBD), #2 and #4 (replacing all reports) would be a good advance.  
I don't know enough about #3 or #5 to say anything, but perhaps #2/#4/#5 could 
go into 2.6 as a (partial) re-architecture of the whole reporting system.

Thoughts?
Phil
