I think this is a great idea!

I think we should just accept the fact that we're late and start with entry 
1 on the day we're ready to go live. If we have more ideas later on we can 
shift the entries back towards Dec 1.

(You've mentioned some of these already)

* Modules
Catalyst::View::Mason
Catalyst::View::HTML::Template
Catalyst::View::GraphViz
Catalyst::View::REST
Catalyst::Enzyme
Catalyst::Plugin::Dumper (or document the _dump method)

* Testing (with Test::WWW::Mechanize::Catalyst)

* Authentication can probably be many entries, from the simple to the complex.
