What will we be doing first week of Dec.
- No Meeting on Dec 1st.
- Sparc support development
- We will be concentrating on getting the items from the
"What's needed" section above done.
Test

- Jason is stating on this new and should be complete in
time to test the completed libbe changes.

Bugs
- bugs fixed for Jan
- 3608
- Bugs fixed for 2009.04
- 946 - code refactoring (includes 3168, 3169, 3170)
- 2628 - beadm ignores multiple args
- 3332 and 3452 - We need to look at the way we throw errors
to see if we can make things a bit better in general
- 3837 - return semantics should be consistent.
- 3926 - should at least be documented.
- 4125 - multiple @'s cause traceback
- 4275 - be_mount.c remove workaround code
- 5221 - clean up failure case on create with missing grub
menu entry.
Anything else?
- RIsks - There is a risk that unit testing may not catch some
issues that may be seen in the later testing due to not having
an installable image while we are doing development. Since we
will be developing on Solaris in general things may not work
exactly the same on OpenSolaris when we get to that testing.
