- From: Rodrigo Moya <rodrigo@xxxxxxxxxx>
- Date: Fri, 09 Jan 2009 00:16:03 +0100
- Message-id: <1231456564.16279.30.camel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
2008 accomplishments
+ We now have a community around GNOME that didn't exist in 2007,
Novell people
not from the desktop team +, more importantly, external people
+ 2 GNOME-ish people on the openSUSE board
+ Improved collaboration with upstream, but still lots of work to do:
intl clock,
multihead
+ Bug triaging, package days were a good thing, but lack the regularity
to engage
more community
+ Build service usage and osc gnome plugins were awesome
+ FOSDEM was a big success
2009 plans
+ Testing and bug filing is working ok, but need to get community
people more
involved
- users.opensuse.org could be a place for external people to
meet up in
areas of interest
- Novell infrastructure (iChain, closed bugzilla) sometimes
doesn't help,
maybe openSUSE could be decoupled from Novell?
- Market openSUSE as a great platform for software development?
- Mentor university students (outside of Google SoC)
- Internal people are online working hours, but not always on
weekends or
evenings, which is when most external people come
- Will come back to weekly meetings
+ Should we innovate more? On what?
- Automating stuff, like in osc gnome, helps a lot (weekly
meetings)
+ Leadership
- Some activities (bug days, meetings, etc) are not done by a
dedicated
"team", so sometimes they don't get organized
+ Upstream
- Package jhbuild with all needed dependencies
- Participate more in new UI designs (3.0, drive usability
tests,
experiment with new UIs, etc)
Next meeting
+ Everyone brings a goal and ways to to achieve it for discussion
+ Discuss having regular bug days, patch upstreaming, etc days
+ Discuss more ways of getting people involved
+ Discuss working on more new upstream features
+ Discuss 11.2 features (http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME/Ideas/11.1)
