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.
