[General] Preview meeting agenda: Aug 6

[Katie Capps Parlante]

Action items from Preview meeting:
+ Evaluate Getting Started Guide for hub/server content (Katie)
+ Have a date for public repository submit (Katie)
+ New task for Troubleshooting page (Philippe)
+ Get a developer seat for Leopard (Philippe)
+ Jared, Ted and Aparna to meet next week about server/hub release 
schedule post preview
+ Reannounce blog to mailing lists, close to launch (Ted)
+ Log tracking Bug for updating wiki with release (Katie)

Decisions:
+ Ted is Jared's backup as release manager when Jared is on vacation
+ Order of announcements:
    1. server release, when 0.7 is released (Jared)
    2. hub upgraded to 0.7 (Jared)
    3. desktop release only after hub upgraded (Philippe)
    4. overall Preview announcement (Katie)
+ Announce server and desktop on freshmeat, desktop on cheeseshop
+ Server performance not blocking
+ Jared taking feedback server back from Bear
+ Ted owner/driver of list policy (reply-to default)
+ Adding tests is a post-preview priority (server and desktop)
+ No expectation that all bugs must be verified before release

Other:
+ New mailing list archive expected before Preview
+ Value of verifying bugs exercise explained:
    - forces testing along focused use cases, not random clicking
    - tests in areas that were recently broken
    - occasionally discover bug not really fixed

Only mildly confused notes here:

Cheers,
