[Dave Wolfe <dwolfe@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Attendees: 
Dave Wolfe, Todd Singleton, Christoph Reichert, Tom Guinane, Rodica Ciurea,
John Crandall, Craig Laverone, Allen Clark, Robert Wipfel, Hans Lin

1) Interesting news and events relevant to Aperi technical
development 
        a) Eclipse Europa what's in it for us? 
        Todd: Just currency

2) The current release (V0.3) 
        a) Testing, testing, ... 
        Hans: the configuration
process is too complicated
        Robert Wipfel: cfgaperi
looking for jars in the wrong place on linux, will file a bugzilla
        Hans: isolated builds,
need new web.xml for testing, when will we get a new build?
        Todd: build broke
(GUI?), working on it

3) The next release (V0.4) 
        a) How do we do MS releases? 
        Robert: Yes, Iterative
Development Models good, nightly builds good, at least smaller iterations,
technical previews?
        Todd: Full builds
contains some 3rd party code, need to rearrange that for regular uploads,
do partials? 
        Dave: Schedule meeting
to discuss build & release processes for V0.4

4) Beyond releases: Aperi SRM trends and futures 
        Dave: Proposed IRC
 as a communication method
             
  Robert: has experience, useful, has log, servers freely
available, or outsource the hosting, bad side not everyone available all
the time. Use email for more async, use wiki for final decisions.
             
  Dave: will investigate setting up an IRC (freenode.net?)

Christof: linux magazine article, special edition targeted
to admins, 5 pages in two weeks, can we do it in that time?
Tom: Yeah, go for it, need a draft in about a week for
review.

As always if I missed or misstated anything let me know
and I will correct it...
