RE: [fw-mvc] S3 and Zend framework : sleeping code in the incubator !

Well this is a very bad exemple of efficiency. I'm not blaming anyone here, but there's 2 S3 proposals in the incubator sleeping for more then a year, dozens of messages on the lists asking for S3 classes that work, humm we can't be satisfied with that !

How could the php community here do better than what we have here ? I see good work in an unfinished process, and this is probably happening to other projects, so, is there somehting we can do to avoid this kind of loss ?
Is there a way we could prioritize this kind of projects on to completion, so we don't "loose" work that was done ?

Well, hummm... One thing that could be done is making a little more publicity arround unfinished projhects  Ex: zend could advertise on the front page of the zend framework project, on the "give back" column all the "nearly finished" projects, so php developers would know better what project they could work on, what work is expected.
It's not a technical solution and does not do the work but might help a little, so we don't see good work staying in the incubator too long.
