Aside: We may not of sent email / blog post. Travis had a draft blog 
post we need to publish.

No concurrent releases. Tom on the email list was looking at this.

Security proposal and GeoFence integration
------------------------------------------

Proposal: 
https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/wiki/GSIP-125---Layer-with-Service-Security

- Jody could not see a way to simplify
- Anyone else available to comment

GeoFence:

- GeoSolutions would like to help fast track integration of GeoFence.
- Target a limited port (strip of GWT UI, do REST API later)
- Add a wicket UI
- Left with an h2 backed security (jdbc based)
- Target 2.8.x
- concern that Niel's proposal would cover 50% of what GeoFence would 
cover and both would land in 2.8.x
- can look into collaboration with Niels

New committers / community modules
----------------------------------

Tile stuff. Early days, wait for initial pull request.

Torbien: Jody nominated, waiting for votes on this .. PropertyDataStore 
is a supported datastore (so this is for "real" commit access). Jody 
will add to github.

Travis: community module CSVDataStore (it was a bit of a mess when it 
arrived from GeoServer). Good to go.

Feedback on the beta
--------------------

- Css deadlock? fixed ... was actualy in the GeoServer style handlers
- Plenty of feedback, handled most of it (some great examples from 
german spatial agency)
- No feedback on the color-blending. Idea: add to style cookbook or 
tutorial? Seems to have a tutorial already ...
- Idea: add css support for color-blending
- No feedback on WPS clustering
- Jukka has been testing IE 7 issues (closing them if they are fixed on 
IE 10)

foss4g-na
---------

Need publicity on this one :) Anything we can do will help.

GWC
---

Discussion on workspace / style parameters. Seems to be okay, Andrea is 
modifying a pull request.

Pull Request Review

- Jody has reviewed, good to go.
- Andrea will check as Travis is a new committer

https://github.com/geotools/geotools/pull/725
