We've done two: I did the first one, and Martin Pitt did the second.  Colin
Watson is working on the latest installation.

It hasn't been forgotten, and has been tracked on
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TechnicalBoardAgenda for a while now.  It just
hasn't been completed yet.

Many thanks, Matt.

Don't we disable these by default for good reason?

We've done two: I did the first one, and Martin Pitt did the second.  Colin
Watson is working on the latest installation.

It hasn't been forgotten, and has been tracked on
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TechnicalBoardAgenda for a while now.  It just
hasn't been completed yet.

Apologies for this evening

2011-08-25 Thread Colin Watson
I'm afraid I won't be able to make this evening's meeting; my
sister-in-law and her children are visiting.  I've started off my
belated brainstorm review (as seen in another mail) and will wait a week
or so for feedback before starting to send out mails to representatives.

Regarding my AOB item from last meeting, this is now settled:

Brainstorm review preparation

2011-08-25 Thread Colin Watson
Belatedly, here's my hit list for this quarter's brainstorm review.
Please look it over and let me know if you have suggestions.

Once it's stable (or if I don't get any feedback) I'll proceed with
approaching the suggested representatives and ask around for suggestions
where I'm unsure.

3. Option for setting separate music and video player
http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/27730/

Settings -> System Info -> Default Applications has both Music and Video
settings).  Review comments and, if appropriate, describe the change and
