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) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help@opensuse.org
