Hi all,
to summaries: there is interest to have a community day, that is awesome
news. :)
Now since we are truly an apache project, we are actually covering
nearly all timezones. Meaning to have a specific time that is best for
everyone will be hard to archive. You can consult the corresponding time
in [1] and we use UTC as default.
Richard said till 8th of march he can join from 1400 UTC, however Ryan
cannot make time after until 15th march. Mingfai and Chapuis did not
have any restrictions. Javier did not replied here but demonstrated
interest when I talked with him the other day (he works with me).
I will try to fit it in as it comes, best would be a weekend to give
everyone the chance to communicate and interact over the different
timezones with each other.
I see different todos on this hackathon:
- review and apply current patches
- tag a release and prepare the release steps
- in-cooperate Mingfais ideas in our design
- start on leaving the incubator
About the order I am not sure, but I think it makes sense to get a
release before we implement Mingfais concept. Further we should try to
leave the incubator since actually seeing this outcome for participation
demonstrate that we have grown a community (half a dozen) and our IP
clearance process should be nearly non existing.
wdyt?

I head off to Amman in two weeks (8th) and will be there until the 22nd,
when I get back to the states. Weekends do work, just not the two I'm
gone, and I can change my time some to accommodate other people in the
world.
Given the number of patches I have out there, I'm obviously going to be
a fan of reviewing those. I did see some of Mingfais' Jira issues, any
in particular you're talking about? I think a release would be a great
idea. What needs to be done for IP clearance?
