+CubicWeb features
+=================
+
+This page  tries to resume features found in the bare cubicweb framework,
+how mature and documented they are.
+
+:code maturity (CM):
+
+  - 0: experimental, not ready at all for production, may be killed
+
+  - 1: draft / unsatisfying, api may change in a near future, much probably in long
+       term
+
+  - 2: good enough, api sounds good but will probably evolve a bit with more
+    hindsight
+
+  - 3: mature, backward incompatible changes unexpected (may still evolve though,
+    of course)
+
+
+:documentation level (DL):
+
+  - 0: no documentation
+
+  - 1: poor documentation
+
+  - 2: some valuable documentation but some parts keep uncovered
+
+  - 3: good / complete documentation
+
+
