Welcome to 2011!
Miro 4.0 status (roadmap)
- working on metadata support, device syncing, performance enhancements,
extensions, streaming to other devices (ipad, ...), ...
- working on project infrastructure: wiki, nightlies, nightly runs of
unit tests, ...
Geoffrey:
- continued working on pydaap--streaming is working now
- working on getting Miro and Miro Video Converter into the Mac app
store
- wrote up a long missive regarding signal and concurrency issues
Kaz:
- worked on automatic ratings based on play/skip counts

- worked on views and other things, too
Asheesh:
- merged Duke code into main so we're not working on two different
Miro Community code bases
- finishing up tiers
Paul:
- worked on refactoring Item code so there's more shared code
between Item and DeviceItem to make it easier for other data
sources
- worked on handling generic devices
Will:
- Worked on a bunch of analysis stuff.
- Started tackling the flashscraper -> vidscraper project.
- Feeling kind of overwhelmed with how much is going on and what's on
his plate.
Ben:
- Worked on GtkTreeModel performance issues when displaying and
manipulating item views.
Order of business:
- Morgan is almost done with new ui mockups.
- Talked about how to do ui workflow and whether to have one person
do all the ui implementation or spread it out.
- Elected chiefs of various domains:
- Electing Ben as Chief Architect.
- Electing Geoffrey as Chief OSX wrangler
- Electing Kaz as Chief Linux wrangler
- Electing Will as Chief infrastructure wrangler (unit tests, localizations,
bugzilla, wiki,
- Electing Will as Chief Windows wrangler
- Electing Janet as Chief of QA
- Electing Paul as Chief of Everything Else
- Talked about GtkTreeModel performance issues.
- git master is in pretty heavy flux right now and because of that
nightlies are pretty unstable--use them at your own risk. This will
sort itself over time when there are fewer massive changes being
made.
- PCF is looking to hire
another Miro developer and a System Administrator. See the jobs
page for more details.
