Desktop Team Meeting January 8th, 2008

Agenda

• 0.7.4: 0.7.4 branched on 01/02 (svn 16166). The Bug Council will be reviewing the outstanding bugs (40+) and move most to 0.7.5 during tonight bug triage. Only blocking bugs will be left on 0.7.4. I'll be updating bugs all day basically with comments. Please review your own 0.7.4 bugs and add a comment (as to whether or not you think it's a blocker for instance) so that the Bug Council can expedite the process. If you can do the same for your untargetted bugs, that'd be great.
• 0.7.future and 1.0: Quick chat/point on the upcoming 0.7.5 and 1.0
• Pilot project: Update from Grant, Jeffrey and PJE
• Reorg: With the upcoming reorg, we need to talk a little about how each of us will transfer and receive knowledge so that the transition has a chance to work.

• Misc
  • Have something to announce? Issues to bring to the group? Please take the stage, er, mic.
