New threads:
-------

Mikeal Rogers wanted to know if there was a good reason to keep using  
'/cosmo' as the url prefix instead of just using '/'
+ Brian Moseley pointed out that in the downloadable cosmo, there is  
very useful help info at '/'

Jared Rhine posted that the current Cosmo web UI doesn't pass XHTML  
validators despite the use of the strict DTD.
+ Matthew Eernisse replied and said that while strictness and  
validation were good goals, we need to keep the use of strict in  
order to force browsers to use the W3C box model for rendering

Brian Moseley modified the way that Cosmo uses atom to update  
collections due to limitations in the servlet API's support of PUT,  
which ultimately led him to modify collection update to work like  
update of subscriptions and preferences.   This mean introducing a  
simple XHTML microformat for collection details.

Morgen Sagen posted about recent changes to Cosmo that increased EIM  
field length restrictions, and wondered if there was a plan to push  
those changes on to hub.chandlerproject.org.
+ Brian Moseley saw no reason that we couldn't do a Cosmo 0.6.1.1 for  
this purpose
+ Aparna Kadakia wanted to be sure that a 0.6.1.1 build was  
adequately QA'ed.

Drew Gibson wanted to know if Cosmo could be used to subscribe to  
CalDAV servers besides Cosmo.
+ Several people responded, and all of the pointed to Alex Dragusin's  
project to have Cosmo subscribe to other CalDAV servers.

Brian Moseley removed the ability of Cosmo administrators to toggle  
ical4j relaxed unfolding, since there's no reason for this setting to  
be changed.

on Windmill.
