ImpDev Meetups/2010-11-11

Summary
ImpDev Meetup for November 11, 2010.


 * We welcomed Boroondas Gupte to our team! She will be working on the Kokua Viewer.
 * Jacek will push the Kokua Viewer repo to Github today, based on SL 2.2. (It's up now: https://github.com/kokua/kokua/)
 * Jacek decided to base on 2.2, because 2.3 does not have a stable release yet (only betas). And, it's much easier to merge to the future than revert to the past.
 * The weekly with media plugins is still not ready. McCabe is having trouble getting the Quicktime plugin to play audio streams, and Jacek is having trouble getting the viewer to compile on Mac at all.
 * Thickbrick has some commits ready to merge:, ,.
 * McCabe asked if Jacek's rewritten login manager is ready yet. No, since she has been too busy to work on it for several weeks.
 * Penny Rayne thinks the login manager should be an external program.
 * Armin wonders if we could get Mana Janus to relicense the old grid manager as LGPL. Probably not, Mana seems to have vanished. Besides, it desperately needs to be rewritten anyway.
 * Jacek brought up the possibility of an experimental with no plugins, but with Aurora compatibility changes merged in.
 * McCabe would rather release with plugins not fully working, so they can get more testing.

Agenda Items
