Minutes

1.6 release update

• Darius has a question on a few tickets that are blocking 1.6 release:
  • Ticket 2103 - Concept Name/Description/Synonyms don't display correctly. Jeremy & Ada are working to assess the impact of this issue.
  • Ticket 1725 - Adding Deactivate/Reactivate or Retire/Unretire Options in User Form. Darius would like someone to go over this and confirm his comments or add others if possible. Sy will work on this.
• If these tickets require work, it may delay RC1 until next week.
• RC1 should stay out for at least a week of actual use. If nothing gets filed, move to final release.

GSoC 2010

• Michael will handle the application for GSoC this year. Burke will get him the materials from last year to use as a template.
• Applications for organizations will be accepted next week.
• The following people will be mentors (and maybe others): Ben, Darius, Win, Wyclif, Sy, Jeremy. If you are willing to be a mentor this year, please contact Michael.

OASYS update

• Zeshan gave an update on the OASYS project. Development is underway.
• The team sent out an update to the developers list a few days ago and is hoping to get feedback ASAP.
• Everyone is encouraged to review and comment on the requirements documents that have been posted to the wiki.

Web strategy

Misc.

• The meetings are going well, but we need to make sure people on the phone and on Skype have more opportunity to speak up. More pauses would help.
• IRC is useful. More people should get on IRC during the meetings.

Transcripts

• Backchannel IRC transcript
• Audio recording of the call: Listen online or download
