Meeting Notes: September 30 2008

1.5.9 is much more stable than 1.5.8
There will be a 1.5.10 release later this year to close up G1
Gallery 1.6
- will not be released by Gallery (Tim_j may do so on his own somewhere else)
- jmullan will write a release story for G1 along the lines of: 1.5.9 is the last release of Gallery 1 that will be supported by the Gallery team and in these forums. Do not dispair! __NEW_GALLERY_NAME__ is the new G1, and will continue to be developed on its own site: __NEW_G1_SITE__. Best of luck to the __NEW_G1_NAME__ team!
steps

tim_j creates a new site/domain/etc
jmullan writes up a post for GMC about this, and he and I edit it together
We simultaneously pull 1.6 from our main page and post the story, sending all traffic over to tim_j's new site

GMC

Gallery 2.3

2.3-RC2 is ready
valiant: packages will be generated tonight/tomorrow so that -devel/-core can verify for release
talmdal: will lead testing of packages (basic sanity testing a la no file integrity warnings, basic functionality)
ckdake: will do the majority than the release process once files are on sf.net (not blue on gmc)
integrators and translators should be notified immediately after release
2.3 still on track for mid October

GX Sprint

Bharat is coordinating with Google to make sure we have a place to work, needs to hear from people that need computers. (Will try and have extra monitors+keyboards)
Gallery is not currently paying for anyone to come other than possibly helping jhilden show up because he's a student
Need to finish working out housing/transportation
