Platform Meeting 21 Feb 2006

agenda

• Question of the week: Have you identified dependencies with Cosmo? Apps team?
• 0.7 Planning
• No meeting next week due to pycon

notes

• Q: Have you identified dependencies with Cosmo? Apps team?
  • Heikki: version #s and milestone schedule (getting this ironed out helps manage dependencies)
  • Grant:
    • Free/busy work may or may not depend on cosmo.
    • apps team depends on free/busy, timezone
  • Ted: apps team depends on domain model -- scoped out in table at DeveloperPlatformProject
  • PJE: schema upgrade import/export may have some UI, not scoped yet
  • Bear: the move to cosmo 0.3 will have ripple effects, installers will have dependencies on upgrade plan
• Linux distribution for 0.7
  • Heikki and Andi summarized the issues well, Heikki will reply to list with summarization
  • Bear and Heikki will update table at DeveloperPlatformProject with working plan of what is getting done when
• Although timezone UI work is happening phase II, timezone support work is happening in phase I. Sheila agreed to move the timezone ui spec work to phase I.
• Andi brought up the epydoc bug that prevents some of his api work from showing up (Bug#4702). Bear said that we'll schedule this and a twisted epydoc bug (Bug#4703) for the 0.7 release.
• Sheila brought up her proposal for non-code release docs. Andi mentioned that as long as we don't have a smooth upgrade path to the milestones, we'll need to support 0.6 derivatives. Katie mentioned that the current stake in the ground is to support an upgrade path between milestones, and that she'll send the list of proposed requirements (buried in dev list thread) directly to design list.
• PyCon prep
  • Katie will give a lightning talk with a demo of Chandler, and will load up her laptop to do the demo. Katie will demo extension parcels in addition to a bit of calendar. Grant will check in his EVDB parcel. Katie will probably demo off the trunk, not 0.6.1 (but will have both loaded).
