No, sorry, I am on the winning side ;-) Well, I wrote some short minutes for the status meeting that took place on June, 13th. Please note that I did not attend this meeting, so these minutes are more or less based on my understanding of the transcript. Corrections and or discussions of the topics mentioned here are welcome. If somebody thinks the minutes should be part of the wiki, feel free to add it. Cheers, Thomas +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Minutes of the Status Meeting 13.06.2006 ---------------------------------------- a) mailing list infrastructure - Henne has new infrastructure almost in place: new mailing list software, scripts, conversion of old archives, new search function for archives, web layout etc. are working. There are still some things to sort out, e.g. backup, handling of bad accounts, etc.. - timeframe: should be finished by 16.06. - next step: move opensuse lists to new infrastructure. If this works out as expected, the suse lists will be moved as well. - there will be slight changes in the mailing list layout: the plan is to have a catchall mailing list "opensuse" for general questions and a project-related mailing list "opensuse-project" which is then meant for discussing the coordination of the project only. Other mailing lists can be considered as the need arises. - Beineri proposed to use the same layout for the IRC channels as well. A decision was postponed, further discussion about this topic expected to happen on IRC channels. b) Q & A - questions concerning problematic updates from 10.0 OSS to 10.1 were redirected to opensuse list or bugzilla as it was not possible to answer these technical questions without knowing the details. - forums: official openSUSE forums are still in "technical evaluation" state. cthiel is working on it. timeframe: some weeks as of now; everybody agreed that work should be finished before SUSE Linux 10.2 is released. - there will be no new ISOs with fixed package manager. People should use the online update during installation or YOU (if the OS is already installed) - this has been tested and it works. Problems with mirror delays have been solved. - sPiN mentioned problems with the registration process and the error message "no product found" and WIFI connections being killed. sPiN was asked to report the problem in bugzilla. Next meeting is schedulded for 27.06.06. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-help@opensuse.org
