Note from the Repository Priority meeting

Repository Priorities for 0.3
Priority	Difficulty	Task
	Hi	Transactions (implies threading work)
	Lo	Query support for 0.3 CPIA
	Lo	Enough notification support for 0.3 agents
	Lo	Support of new notion of "parcelness"
	Lo	As much stability, integreity and performance tests as can be written in a week
	Med	Support for text-blob data type (implies some thought about full text indexing)
