Just thought I'd post a quick note about the hackathon that took place
today at Stanford university. "We" below refers to Justin Mason,
Daniel Quinlan, Michael Parker and me. Matt Sergeant was also present
too for a while, so "we" can include him too for some of the
following items. :-)

Discussion

 * We discussed at length the ideas for the new rules project, and we
came up with some ideas, which we're trying to track
http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/RulesProjectPlan (Please give us
your feedback)

 * We discussed the 3.2 release goals
(http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/ReleaseGoals)

 * Dr. Andrew Ng gave us a brief presentation of how Logistic
Regression may be an algorithm we could use in the future to replace
the perceptron.

Development

 * We came up with a plan to restructure PerMsgStatus.pm so it's not
so unwieldy and out of
control. (http://bugzilla.spamassassin.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4497)

 * We branched the tree so we could start committing stuff to
HEAD. Strangely, however, we got almost no coding done.

QA/Bugs

 * We went through all the bugs targeted for 3.1.0 and triaged
them. (all the bugzilla comments from me today were really from all of
us that were present)

 * We added a "moreinfo" keyword to bugzilla for bugs that are in need
of more info. One side effect of this, is that we'll need to remove
that keyword when more info is actually given. :-)


That's about all.
