[reportlab-users] Fixing bugs in RL 2.2

Hi,

I would like to suggest an approach to make contributing to ReportLab
easier: Why don't you put ReportLab Toolkit to Google Code
<http://code.google.com/hosting/> or something similar. The maintenance
of projects there is very simple. The direct benefits would be:

- Issue tracking (!)
- Wiki for developer centric informations
- Very responsive Subversion Repository
- Easy way for contributions of external developers
- No more annoying server administration for ReportLab ;)

I think this would also bring some relief to Reportlab and it's
commercial work if external open source developers contribute their
manpower ;)

If you need help on how to set up such a site, please let me know.

Dirk
