Miro 4.0 status (roadmap)
- lots of flux in git-master, but the code is stabilizing
- 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, ...
- probably a release in April or May--we're working hard on it!
Janet:
- worked on testing over the week
- worked on sikuli tests now that the ui is more stable
- feels that things are finally coming together
Will:
- worked on an upgrade problem with torrent directories
- implemented Import Media dialog -- will talk to Nick about
this to figure out UI issues
- strings are still in flux, so it's not stable enough for
translations
- working on conversion bugs now
Paul:
- worked on P1 bugs
- working on P1 bugs assigned to admin and taking bugs from
other people
Kaz:
- worked on scrolling issues and selection issues
- working on a bunch of P1 miscellaneous bugs
Ben:
- worked on a ton of P1 bugs
- did a bunch of ui stuff: item details pane, standard view,
conversion item renderer
Jonas:
- finished up magnet uri support
- working on P1 bugs
Order of business:
- Talked about how Miro does conversions and reworking it to
fix some problems.
- Talked about where we're at with Miro 4.0. Things are looking
good. Bug data suggests we've reached a point of inflection where
we're fixing bugs faster than new bugs are coming in. There are
still a fair amount of P1 bugs to do, but it seems manageable.
- git master is in pretty heavy flux right now and because of that
nightlies are probably unstable--use them at your own risk. This
will sort itself over time when there are fewer massive changes
being made. If you're interested in testing, but don't want to test
bleeding edge, then it's worth waiting until we hit the release
candidate portion of the dev cycle. We're currently thinking that'll
be in a couple of weeks.
- 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/.
