Gallery Remote 1.0 features

Document goal

Serve as a basis for team and community discussions about GR 1.0 features, how they will be implemented, and by whom.

-

Prerequisite

-

Right now, GR is pretty monolythic. Before I can open development to other - developers, I need to make the code more modular. This has already started, - but any and all suggestions are welcome.

+

The goal is to ship Gallery Remote 1.0 once all P1 and P2 features have been + implemented. P3 and lower features will be implemented in point-releases following + the release of GR 1.0.
