- rewrite / replace compat bots; fix core bugs preventing upgrading to core: Pywikibot-compat-to-core
Move all compat documentation to https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Pywikibot/Compat, add it to https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Template:Pywikibot- hold a Pywikibot-General cleanup day to triage all bugs in that tag into either/both compat/core, and then delete that tag. (and then repeat step 2)
release Pywikibot 2.0- at Wikimania July 2015 (https://wikimania2015.wikimedia.org/), mass close all tasks that are Pywikibot-compat only
