  • Working on Bug:3480 (Update reminders to handle recurrence), picked up from JeffreyHarris.
  • Looked at Python performance on MacOS X; I can speed up python -m timeit by about 10%, but this doesn't have measureable impact on running real code (as opposed to empty loops).
  • Discussed some sharing issues with MorgenSagen, and began work on related zanshin fixes.

• Plan
  • Finish up Bug:3480
