Miro 4.0 status (roadmap)
- we put out a beta on Saturday and things are looking awesome
- there's still a lot of work to do, we need help with testing and
translations.
Janet:
- We did a beta release over the weekend. Huge number of Windows
downloads (2000ish). OSX downloads (100ish). Source downloads
(10ish).
- Some minor issues discovered so far--things are looking ok.
- Pulling in interns to do more testing on Miro.
Will:
- Worked on P1 bugs that were primarily TypeError issues and easily
fixed with some defensive programming.
- Happy to have a beta channel---that'll solve a bunch of release
testing issues.
- Going to switch gears and work on Miro User Manual stuff. Trying to
write a comprehensive but concise manual. It needs to be concise
because otherwise we'll spend tons of time writing and maintaining
it. Planning to do a few manual-writing sprints like we did last
cycle.
Paul:
- Worked on Miro Community project list page.
- Working on P1 bugs for Miro and Miro Community.
Rob:
- Tighten up the systems, make them more automated, make them more
efficient.
Geoffrey:
- Worked on P1 bugs and trying to squeeze more performance from
transcoding.
Kaz:
Jonas:
- Worked on Windows playback issues and some other beta bugs.
Asheesh:
- Interested in fixing Miro stuff to make it easier to bring in new
contributors and also running some sprints
Ben:
Order of business:
- More ui changes coming.
- RC on Friday. Focus on outstanding ui changes.
- Manual doesn't need to be totally up to date on release, so Will
will updated a bunch of stuff, and probably put in stubs for bits.
- Miro is developed by a community of people including you! If you
can't contribute your time and work to development, testing, and
translations, please consider contributing funding
by donating. Your
money goes directly to ongoing development of Miro and related
projects like Miro Community
and Universal
Subtitles.
See http://pculture.org/about/
for more details on these projects.
- Did you know there's a Miro User Manual? If you haven't looked at
it yet, it's worth taking a look at. You can find it
at http://manual.getmiro.com/.
