[Server-devel] [XSCE] XSCE devel scrum on #schoolserver

[Anish Mangal]

Hi,

We had our very first IRC scrum earlier today. Thanks to all those who
attended. The meeting was logged.

=Rolling agenda document is here=
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1o6QtzLb6e58YKWqMf_junux2XyBRLFm31un8YLcYslg/edit

=Key highlights/minutes=

* Both RC-2 and stable release have been deferred by a week to 19th and
26th September respectively. This has been done in light of the recent
breakages, and to allow sufficient time to test on various supported
platforms.

* At some point (hopefully later this week) a separate RC-2 (Release
Candidate) branch will be created, after the major issues have been
resolved, and the buildbot will start automatic builds from that branch.

* There is some lack of clarity of the performance of IIAB (Internet In A
Box) on XO-1.5, XO-1.75 with/without extra swap memory. Anna will create a
public instance of XSCE-0.4 on an XO-1.5 at
http://schoolserver.alabamaxo.org.* *Once the server is up, she will
announce it here, and all of us are encouraged to test it as much as
possible.

* XSCE-0.4 RC2 will be presented at makerfaire http://makerfaire.com Sept
21/22 in NYC

=Request to community=
We are getting very close to the RC-2 and stable release. You are
encouraged to test the builds as much as possible, on whatever platform you
have access to, in whatever configuration you find comfortable. These
efforts would be most effective *once the RC-2 branch has been created (it
will be publicly announced again).*

Best,
