This is the meeting agenda/notes for the Meeting held on 2008-07-07.

Low anttendance at this meeting; some items may need more input by off-line members

Agenda:

Next meeting time
- Wes suggested aug 11th at the same time (19:00 UTC); no objections
Status reports
- 5.2.5 (Wes)
  - Will release later after the meeting or early tomorrow
- 5.4.2 (Dave)
  - was waiting for 5.2.5 and has one issue on darwin
  - will release .rc1 shortly after 5.2.5 is out
- makerelease (Wes/Dave)
  - no comments other than Wis admitting it needs more work
Coding Issues
- Bug Bashing
  - wes posed some questions:
  - 1) do we think we can all spend a portion of time to work on bugs at the same time
  - 2) should that time period be based on what length of time (1 hour, 6 hours, a 24 hour window)
  - 3) what should the communication method be (IRC vs email)
  - General consensi:
    - IRC probably has a better shot at working
    - Short and focused would be better (~ 1 hr)
    - It should be announced on -coders
    - July 21st proposed and accepted
    - Dave will lead it
- patch policy for triple-dot releases
  - lots of discussion: end result = leave up to the release manager
Round-the-table
