     30<gregboone>     Hi All
     31<gregboone>     Welcome to the FDO PSC Meeting
     32<gregboone>     It has been some time since we met.
     33<orest> Hi.
     34<gregboone>     I hope we can get back into a more regular pattern of meeting
     35<mloskot>       Hi All
     36<gregboone>     The only expected member not yet online is Haris
     37<orest>         He said that he would be able to make it.
     38<FrankW>        It's too bad that Jackie and Traian aren't here.
     39<gregboone>     Yes.
     40<gregboone>     I agree
     41<gregboone>     However, both parties have (and Jason B) have expressed their intentions and opinions on the PSC makeup
     42<gregboone>     Well... I guess we should start.
     43<mloskot>       Friends, unfortunately, I have to keep up my decision from Oct 2008 (http://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/fdo-internals/2008-October/002473.html) about stepping down. I just wanted to show up on the meeting and remind about it - I'm still listed as a PSC member.
     44<mloskot>       I'd be thankful if we/you could take some actions on that
     45<gregboone>     Thank you Mateusz
     46<gregboone>     We appreciate all your efforts working on the PSC
     47<gregboone>     I will remove you as a member after this meeting
     48<mloskot>       It was a great experience to me working with FDO. Thanks to all
     49<orest>         Thanks' very much for all your contributions to FDO!
     50<gregboone>     I hope you will still find time in the future to contribute to the FDO community.
     51<gregboone>     <rbray> Bob.. Did you also wish to speak about your membership on the PSC?
     52<rbray>         yes I know there is concern about adding Traian having the effect of too many ADSK folks on the PSC
     53<rbray>         So I would be willing to step down in favor of Traian taking my place
     54<orest>         Is there an issue in simply adding one additional PSC member, increasing the size by one?
     55<FrankW>        I am not particularly concerned about overloading on ADSK folks.
     56<gregboone>     Jason had mentioned expanding the PSC if necessary, but I believe keeping the odd number and Autodesk/Community membership ratio is a good idea
     57<gregboone>     However.... if I am the only dissenting opinion, I can be persuaded to increase the size.
     58<FrankW>        I'm ok either way
     59<rbray>         I'd suggest increasing the size
     60<rbray>         The more the merrier and the more opportunity for people ot contribute
     61<gregboone>     OK. So Jason nominated Jackie and Traian as new members of the PSC, do we have a seconder?
     62* FrankW        seconds.
     63<orest>         Do we need a formal vote on increasing the PSC size by one?
     64<gregboone>     Ah yes...
     65<gregboone>     All in favor of increasing the size of the PSC by 1
     66<gregboone>     +1
     67* mloskot       seconds - if he still has a vote in last seconds of his membership
     68<mloskot>       +1
     69<orest>         +1
     70<rbray> +1
     71<FrankW>        +1
     72<gregboone>     All in favor of adding Jackie and Traian as new PSC members
     73<gregboone>     +1
     74<FrankW>        +1
     75<orest> +1
     76<rbray> +1
     77<gregboone>     Welcome Traian and Jackie.
     78<gregboone>     Both motions have been carried
     79<gregboone>     Is Jackie online?
     80<mloskot>       Thanks all again!
     81* mloskot       is about to leave, anything else he is supposed to do here?
     82<gregboone>     Thank You M
     83<gregboone>     Best Wishes
     84<mloskot>       anyway, you know my e-mail
     85<mloskot>       ciao
     86<--     mloskot has left freenode ("Leaving")
     87<gregboone>     The next order of business in the 3.3.2 release
     88<gregboone>     We have had a RC2 candidate for some time, but have delayed releasing it due to 64 bit compile issues on Ubantu
     89<FrankW>        I am not making any progress on this front.
     90<gregboone>     I am in favor of releasing it as is unless there is a clear plan in place to address those issues in a timely manner
     91<FrankW>        agreed
     92<gregboone>     Any opposing viewpoints?
     93<gregboone>     OK. We are agreed. RC2 will be released and 3.3.2 Final
     94<gregboone>     The next issue I wanted to raise was the 3.4.0 Beta. It has been posted and is awaiting feedback.
     95<gregboone>     There is no plan to post another beta. I can imagine the RC been posted once the beta is flushed out.
     96<gregboone>     Any questions/comments on the progress of 3.4.0?
     97<gregboone>     OK. The next topic I wanted to touch base on is the state of the RFC list.
     98<gregboone>     I believe there are RFC's on that list which are marked as Draft, but which have been implemented
     99<gregboone>     RFC22
     100<gregboone>     RFC29
     101<gregboone>     Is that accurate?
     102<orest>         Also 21 and 30.
     103<orest>         Sorry, you said "which have been implemented" - those haven't
     104<gregboone>     Agreed
     105<gregboone>     Does anyone have any updates on 21 or 25?
     106<gregboone>     25 was approved as well
     107<FrankW>        I thought we had consensus to try out CMake in a branch or something, but I haven't heard of any further activity.
     108<gregboone>     Branch or Sandbox
     109<gregboone>     I have not seen any further activity either
     110<gregboone>     I will touch base with Jason to determine what is happening
     111<gregboone>     With respect to 25: Informix provider. Are there are updates?
     112<gregboone>     (any updates)
     113<gregboone>     Was Haris posting interim builds on his company's site?
     114<gregboone>     I just checked... Looks like a download is available
     115<orest>         We need to find out from Haris when he'd be able to post the provider onto fdo.osgo.
     116<gregboone>     I will ping him to determine if he plans to submit the source code to the SVN trunk. Currently is looks like it is only available on FDO 3.x.
     117<gregboone>     As for RFC15, I do not believe there are any plans to proceed on this and it can be deferred
     118<orest>         Right, there were some outstanding issues and the author never got back to them.
     119<gregboone>     It can always be re-introduced post 3.4.0
     120<gregboone>     Any other RFC issues/comments?
     121<gregboone>     <Orest> What about RFC 30?
     122<gregboone>     What is the expectation there?
     123<orest>         It was submitted as a proposal for a future version, not for 3.4.
     124<orest>         I think Brent Robinson had most of the code done towards it.
     125<gregboone>     OK. Understood. I don't think there were any outstanding issues in that RFC that were still under discussion
     126<gregboone>     We can defer voting on it until we release 3.4.0
     127<orest> OK.
     128<gregboone>     The next issue to discuss is the proposed CMake build system, but since no submissions have been made and Jason is not online... we will have to take that discussion to the fdo-internals list
     129<gregboone>     The final issue on the list is the future of FDO... before we talk about that, is there any other business to discuss?
     130<gregboone>     OK. It appears not.
     131<gregboone>     Regarding FDO 3.4 and beyond... is this a time to start discussing what the future looks like?
     132<orest>         I had a discussion with Haris a couple of months ago. He was looking at some requirements that he was thinking about around the client utilities / wrapper topic. However, since he's not here today, it would be difficult to get very far on it.
     133<gregboone>     Yes. I agree.
     134<orest>         It would be good to get other folks' thoughts on the futures topics.
     135<orest>         In general, we all can add to the wiki pages on these.
     136<gregboone>     Agree
     137<gregboone>     I guess we need to start developing some concrete ideas if we are to move forward on this.
     138<gregboone>     Any further agenda items to discuss in this meeting?
     139<gregboone>     In that case, I close the meeting. Welcome Jackie and Traian. Looking forward to your involvement on the PSC.
     140<orest>         On the future's topic, I want to encourage everyone to add to the wiki with their comments.
     141<FrankW>        +1
     142<gregboone>     Yes
     143<gregboone>     +1
     144<gregboone>     :)
     145<gregboone>     Thanks all for attending and talk to you soon
     146<orest>         Cheers everyone :)
