Agenda

Prior action points : status + evolution

1/ Participation model around the Community Project

Team is asked to check the doc a final time in the next few days. Please comment through ML. RFC to be published this week. Paul prefers an aggregated post and a well written summary with the key points. This should be the case once notes and comments are removed, and it is split in separate pages.

2/ share.ez.no upgrade

Carlos: Worry about old API calls, like templateini, we are on 4.2 and making use of deprecated functions/calls. Graham’s problems were solved, docs are ready for review by Nicolas. Nicolas also needs to make a new decision on a new branch or not, in the community repo.
C.R. The idea is to work in another branch, so we can add new functions calls (eZTemplate::factory(), ezpIi18n::tr ) to the extensions. if we do it in trunk, probably someone can update them accidentally, and this functions are not defined in the actual share.ez.no ez publish version (4.2). No further problems for Carlos or Graham, upgrade is moving ahead according to plan.

3/ Other points

Team is asked to think about the Job Board, this will be our next item with Part. Doc soon to be published and Upgrade moving ahead according to plan.
- Carlos, Graham and Robin think a Job Board should be integrated into share.ez.no, not a separate site.
- Define scope of such a board, only job offers, or also allow people to post CV’s?
- Action, Robin: start discussion on ML about this, Job Board

Prioritized next steps

1. Participation Model
2. Upgrading share.ez.no to 4.4
3. Job Board
4. Clean-up/revamp of projects.ez.no

1. Everyone, check participation doc a final time, to be published this week!
