Hello.

Preamble: Most slides are available on the wiki already:
https://phab.enlightenment.org/w/events/enlightenment_developer_day_us_2015/
Only Raster's Keynote and the Wayland upstream ones are missing. Will
make sure they will appear at some point.

It took some notes during the dev day. Mostly to record action items
that I figured out during discussions. None of them are targeting new
features for development but more general topics.
Definitely not a full list but only what I recorded personally.

Action Items:
o The packaging status of efl and friends is widely different between
distros - > Compile a wiki table with the current status and try to keep
the versions up to date [assigned: Stefan]
o Newcomers often have a rough time joining the EFl development. Once
they are start to ask technical questions IRC is fine but before it
seems to be a painful process sometimes. I had a quick side talk with JP
about this. One idea we came up with is having a list of mentors which
could be contacted for the first steps. Need to think about details
here. Its really more a social than a technical problem. Input welcome.
[assigned: none]
o Talk to beber to remove the old trac webservice to make sure we have
less outdated information [assigned: Stefan]
o Mail about mandantory unit tests for new API's where possible.
Separate mail will follow. [assigned: Stefan]
o Cover more configure options inJenkins jobs: xinput2.2, systemd,
harfbuzz, web-p loader and saver [assigned: Stefan]
o Measure code coverage also in Elemenatry. Jenkins graphs. [assigned:
Stefan]
o Figure out how to measure code coverage for exactness runs [assigned:
none]
o Aim for 5% code coverage increase per release [assigned: everybody]

As these are mostly my personal notes its not surprising that many are
assigned to me. Still there is room to help out here. Input for the
mentors program as well as removing outdated documentation and adding
more unit tests would also help.

regards
Stefan Schmidt
