Hey Stephan,
Thank you for writing and apologies for my late reply.

Hi everybody, I was wondering if there was any kind of todo list for IPFirev3 ? For people like me who would like to get started ?
Yes, there kind of is, but only on a very high level.
The distribution cannot be built right now because our build system is down and I lack time to have a look at it and bring it all back to work.
I've found such a list neither in the wiki nor in bugzilla. (Though I found a few unrelated bugs).
There are plenty of bugs in BZ for IPFire 3.
Do those tasks come naturally to you as soon as you've configured your 3 ?
No, there is no setup process yet, no images. So won’t be very obvious what to do.
There is a short quick start guide on the networking: https://man-pages.ipfire.org/network/network-quick-start.html
Do you have any kind of definition when version 3 is good for release ? Which features have to be available?
It lacks a build system, a firewall and a web UI. So we are very far away from release.
Nobody of the core developers has substantially touched the distribution in years.
Which functionalities are required ? Anything in that direction ? I'd guess there is.. I'm just overlooking something again.
Best regards, Stephan
Sorry for all this bad news, but right now what would help the project is keeping development of IPFire 2 going and fix all those nasty bugs so that they won’t hold us back any longer.
Best, -Michael
