1. meeting ending time.

   • 1 hour will be the length of meetings.

   • remaining items will be tabled
2. next meeting date

   • Mar 2

3. Eric S. Raymond's request to get temporary commit access to fix documentation bugs (see -coders)
   • will mention the details of our system
   • will ask about getting his tools?
   • will say "yes" if he understands the system
4. svn vs cvs

• quick test vote:

dave	rstory	tanders	darix
ignorant	on the fence	svn, but maybe not SF	svn

• discussion of differences for those that didn't know
• repeat of vote
  • everyone about the same. Except Dave "why the hell not" Shield
• message sent to -coders asking for objections
• date for change: Feb 23

5. wiki status
   • status of tutorials
     • mfd not converted
     • files not converted
   • discussion surrounding links to code files
     • should files be in the wiki and editable? seems unsafe.
     • decision -- link to external files is svn/web
   • ready to link tutorials to top page?
     • yep. Wes will change link.
6. next releases and dates
   • choices:
     • 5.4.1
     • 5.3.2
     • 5.2.4
   • decision:
     • 5.2.4
       • There are two different interpretations by people that were in the meeting about what to do after that:
         • 1) 5.4.1 next and 5.3.2 after that.
         • 2) no decision on what to do next and it should wait to be discussed later
         • therefore, topic will go to a mailing list.
       • (Dave said there wasn't a consensus on this, but I'm certain there was... we'll revisit later anyway)
     • 5.2.4 release manager: Dave
