[ckan-dev] Documentation todo list for 2.0 release

With the prior discussion on how compatibility will be maintained in
extensions for the 1.x branch, moving those extensions into core would mean
that the 1.x version of the extensions wouldn't get updated with fixes, so
a definite -1 from me.

I don't suppose there is any chance of standardising the docs for plugins,
so that they all look the same - it might encourage better documentation
for the plugins themselves if they had a template to work from?

Ross.
