Agenda:

  • Prioritise tasks that we will work on for the upcoming 3.0 release

Possible Areas for improvement:

  • Clean up desktop icons
    • maybe use a menu instead
    • probably create a section for "bleeding edge" releases and packages. This section doesn't need the same level of QA as the rest.
  • Make build scripts consistent
    • copy config files from checked out svn directory, rather than "wget https://svn.osgeo.org/...xx.config". This means we can rebuild old releases (which can't be done at the moment).
    • Use the same tmp file names
  • Quality Control:
    • Have each project write a test plan which explains how to test to see if the project works
  • Move toward OSGeo incubation
    • Put commit processes in place, and specify which licences can and cannot be added
    • Have committers sign up to maintain the commit guidelines
    • Specify license guidelines
  • Data Sets:
    • Package up a common dataset
    • Encourage (but not mandate) projects to use the dataset
  • Documentation: (probably to target 4.0, foss4g 2010)
    • Provide tutorial guidelines
    • Encourage projects to populate the tutorials in line with the guidelines
