[META] Migrate to object-oriented architecture

Clarify.

Enhance Roadmap.

Add one more point to Roadmap

I am not a coder but a very happy user of this module which currently works great. I appreciate that you as a maintainer are going to put some serious efforts into this.

Thank you for your feedback, David. I am glad that my work is noticed by the real person - not just by spam bots we are fighting with:)

My question is: This migration seems to be non-trivial. Shouldn't this be done in a separate branch (7.x-2.x)?

You are totally right that it should be done in a separate branch. When I've started to work on this migration, it doesn't seem to be so huge. But now when I see the real size of it, I don't think it makes sense to switch branch during the development. You don't have reasons to worry: every change is covered by tests and 2 versions of the same program currently co-exist in the code of BOTCHA. They are switched by setting a variable botcha_oo_migrate to 1, which is by default unset - so the latest dev looks like (and works like) as a stable release. When the migration becomes completed, I will just switch the main logic of the program from one rails to other and remove old way. Since everything is covered by tests, it is going to be painless operation.

So perhaps a little word of caution that the dev is currently in fact under heavy development might be in order.

You are right, it should be in place.
Done: https://drupal.org/node/1509114.

Added UI major tasks.

Added admin links issue.

Roadmap updated

Added the last (I hope) point

Roadmap extended with releasing a stable version and porting this functionality to D6

My question is: This migration seems to be non-trivial. Shouldn't this be done in a separate branch (7.x-2.x)?

The refactoring finally got its own branch, the 2nd for both Drupal versions (I mean 6.x-2.x and 7.x-2.x). Stable releases are available.
The plan is done, hoorah! Thanks for all who contributed.
