These are not specific suggestions, but rather things I'm
looking for in a proposal:

- be careful about introducing new tools and techniques that everybody
has to learn. One or two new tools perhaps. Especially pet tools.

- avoid a 100 page document on how to develop for openocd. Find the
crucial points to get right and don't  dilute these with lots of small rules.

- openocd will need a lot of work still. We need to avoid development
gridning to a halt, yet more stability is needed.

- take into consideration that we have anything from hardware
developers to software developers as contributors. The fanciest
software techniques could alienate those that work mainly
in the embedded domain(Java, Scrum, Object Oriented programming,
etc.)

- focus on observable functionality and behaviour. I.e. whitespace
*is* less important than SEGFAULTs...
