Since we use Basecamp to manage SimplePie development, we’ve decided to hook directly into our to-do lists for the Beta 3 and RC1 releases, as well as the list for the next version of the plugin engine (which is shared between the WordPress, Textpattern, and Mediawiki plugins).

These to-do lists are live! We have not added any sort of caching even (although this might have to change soon), so the lists in our new Development section are accurate up-to-the-instant. So if you’re interested in what will actually be worked on, check it out. It’ll be automatically updated as we check things off or add new items to the lists.

I don’t think you can be a more transparent open-source project than that! 🙂
