Wayne, Cliff, John,
How about a Technology PMC phone call? Please send me (reply-one, not
reply-all) some suggested times/dates.
I think we need to discuss the yet-to-be-done, but
really-should-be-more-often trimming of inactive Technology projects. I
looked through the list of projects:
- ACTF - live
- Albireo - live
- ALF - not very live
- dev mailing list: no dev activity since July; numerous "no
meeting today" emails
- newsgroup: nothing for months; there is a "is anybody here?"
post that was not answered
- home page: does not have an "About This Project" link in spite
of at least two reminders
- coding: a little coding is going on, looks like mostly changes
to copyright notices
- project plan: out of date: shows an end date in mid 2007 and
it's now almost mid 2008
- 13 new bugs in last 12 months, none in 2008; 34 fixed in last
12 months, none in 2008
- Aperi - active

enhancements, 42 are bugs; 10 new, 13 resolved in the last 6 months;

internal Genuitec project
