Minutes of Power in 9.1.0 meeting

[Greg Smith]

Thanks Chris!

Could you also mention any planned GUI changes in the specification 
section? Name changes to the modes and moving the "radio off" to Network 
control panel only are two that come to mind. If you can define what it 
will look like and help close the loop with Sugar or whoever is needed 
to change the GUI that would be a big help.

Also, who is tracking the added ability to shut off power to the radio 
interface and its logic when the radio is set to off in its control 
panel (requirement 2)?

Joe,

Its over to you to write the test plan now. I added two documentation 
links to the top of the specification section to give you more 
background on how it is supposed to work.

Let me know if you have any questions. I want to have a solid test plan 
reviewed and in place early this time as I think that was a critical 
missing piece in the 8.2.0 release.

Thanks,

Greg S

I've added these new sections to the requirements (added to the end of
the list in order to avoid renumbering the list).  I also added a link
to the most recent test plan we have for power management, which would
be a fine model for the new one.
