What's this about?In April 2010, I picked up
Bug 210 - Overhaul "memories" in Dreamwidth's bug tracking system. It describes a complete overhaul of what is now the memories system of Dreamwidth into a more modern tag-based system.
Why do I want to do this?I have been putting this off for way too long. It will be a very good exercise in a lot of things (databases, OOP in Perl, interface design) and will be a wonderful addition to the site.
How will I know when I've done this?I will have submitted patches for version 1 of the new memory system and these patches will have been committed to the site.
I'll record thisin this journal when the patches are first submitted and when they are accepted.
