As I am wrapping up DriveWire version 4, I keep thinking about all the
great suggestions and ideas that people have shared with me.
I'd love to see some of them come to be in the next version of
DriveWire.  I could sure use a hand to make some of these thing happen
though.

I've listed what I think are the most interesting ideas for going
forward.  Most of these features are held up by my lack of skill on
the CoCo.  Only a couple require any work on the server side (and
trust me, if anyone does the CoCo side work, I will get any server
side stuff done one way or another :)

If you know the ins and outs of the BASIC ROMs, assembly, OS9..  There
are ideas lacking skill waiting for you here:

This is not an authoritative list, all ideas are welcome.  Current and
future DriveWire is 100% GPL open source code, it belongs to the
community and all input is welcome.  I've never asked for anything in
return for the hundreds of hours I've put into dw4, because frankly
I've enjoyed doing it and probably would have done it for myself
anyway :).  However, I am asking for some help going forward.  There
are so many great things we could do and I feel like my own lack of
skill on the CoCo side is the biggest impediment most of the time.
