Hi all,
this is a raw copy of the minutes of the last QA call on 2013-05-31, the
original
can be found here:
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/Meetings/2013/May_31
Please refer to the wikipage for a better formatted format of the minutes.
Best,
Bjoern
P.S.: Robinson, it would be awesome if we could drop such a note on the minutes
to the projects@-list in the future so it is kept visible to other parts of the
project. could you take care of that? Even just dropping the link to the wiki
page might be enough TBH.

Pending Items
PENDING ITEM: Proposals regarding our workflow
PUNTED: Until next meeting (May 31) (ran out of time).
[ACCEPTED] PROPOSAL: Joel: Don't create proposal and AGREE to it on the
same day. Instead we should discuss, add a PROPOSAL (keyword in bold), and
allow those who do not attend call to reply via email. If no negative feedback
by next call, we can mark as AGREED and remove the Item from our PENDING ITEMS
list.
[ACCEPTED] PROPOSAL: Joel: Slow down on some of our proposals/work. E.g. on
the creation of the qa.libreoffice.org
[ACCEPTED] PROPOSAL: Joel: If we make a decision that takes a lot of time
for other people, wait a long time; 3+ weeks to hold on for people
[ACCEPTED] PROPOSAL: Joel: Don't make a rule about how to triage things;
Just lead by example
Joel -- Any objections to the current slate of PROPOSALs?
(None...)
We've been waiting a bit more on our
ACTION: Joel will ask devs/users about moving BugReport page under QA (and
perhaps refactoring)
PENDING ITEM: NEEDINFO Stagnant Bugs
[DONE] ACTION: Joel will do a test run today, then will email QA List (and
core people) and ask for feedback.
If all is good, Joel will try to ramp up to 50+ a day
386 bug reports
Gotten some complaints, but few
Going to 'my bugs' doesn't display all of one's bugs (e.g. NEEDINFO bugs
aren't on there) -- Joel filed a bug report and emailed Tollef.
ACTION: 2 weeks from now Joel will provide a staff update; 4 weeks from
now, will close the bugs as invalid
Joel -- Feel free to walk away if a user is starting to tick you off
PENDING ITEM: Get French BSA Operational
[DONE] ACTION: Joel will continue to shepherd the project; Will coordinate
with Rob
ACTION: Joel will do a test of the French BSA and see what is left to do
(with Floeff)
Perhaps we just need to add an email address to the French email list
(Floeff has mod rights?)
PENDING ITEM: What to do with FDO bugs filed against Extensions, Templates
[DONE] ACTION: Joel will (try to) contact the maintainer of the LO
Extension Site again
Joel is waiting
Someone from ESC said that they pinged Andreas, who should in turn ping
Joel (but no word yet)
We need a more permanent solution, but for now, add Cor or Bjoern to bug
reports filed against Extensions (they can help you out)
Bjoern - Once we have things more sorted out, we'll have to find if we can
prioritize in other extension improvements
Mas - Is thinking about joining the Extension (?) Team
ACTION: Joel will get Mas the information about the Extension bugs problem
(hopefully will get us some traction on this ITEM)
PENDING ITEM: QA Website
ACTION: Joren will create OSX-specific pages
ACTION: Joel will create Linux-specific pages
[DONE] ACTION: For everyone - if you want a pic and/or bio on the site,
please send that info to Florian R.
[DONE] ACTION: Florian R. will update Windows-specific pages
Joel did some work on the front page (but can't publish, as he doesn't have
publishing rights yet)
Joel - Ping him with any updates/tihngs that he should fix (or fix them
yourself, if you have appropriate rights)
Joel - Will try to get Linux-specific page ready by next meeting
Joel - Add personal information if you like to the Core Team page
Ping Florian R. with changes/updated information if you would like him to
make updates
Homepage and Windows pages have a solid draft. Team page is close to done.
PENDING ITEM: Should we activate voting on FDO?
[DONE] ACTION: Bjoern will keep shepherding the implementation of this
feature
Bjoern - Tollef said that bugs should be filed for Voting/Bold statement to
email
Joel - I filed bugs :-)
[ Joel's bugs: FDO query ]
Bjoern - Still waiting to hear from Tollef
ACTION: Will track the filed bug and wait to hear updates
PENDING ITEM: Add BOLD statement to each FDO mail sent out to not reply via mail
