Meeting Summary

Hackfest Planning

During this week, and due different issues, Joanie and Piñeiro were discussing other options for the hackfest.
Right now it seems that the most sensible/easy solution is doing as proposed, during WebkitGTK hackfest.
So current plan is doing a merged hackfest
API sent a last-confirmation-mail to webkitgtk organizers to see if this is ok
Joanie is still wondering if we can have it at the same time and in the same city, but use an additional site
As it is planned a big webkitgtk hackfest, the idea is having a small and focused a11y hackfest.
We can have a more general one (with all the a11y aspects) before-during-after GUADEC
ACTION: Either Joanie or Piñeiro will get in touch with Alex Surkov and the Board about our plans.

The 21st Oct at 15:00 UTC there will be a irc marketing meeting.
Juanjo hopes to have more concrete info about fundraising plans.
Juanjo is working to store Bryen's a11y banners along with the US event box
ACTION: Juanjo will update the a11y FoG wiki page to remove the scripting-related proposal, as well as add an indication that additional proposals shall follow once we know the status and plans with respect to an A11y FoG.

Joanie has not heard anything back from Patrick regarding her questions regarding Dasher.
ACTION: Joanie will attempt to contact Patrick.
Joanie will do the introspection port of DOTS this weekend.
ACTION: Piñeiro will send pretty mails to desktop-devel-list proposing a11y features, after the green light and background from people taking care of it.
ACTION: Joanie will create a 3.4 team features page.
ACTION: Juanjo will test a11y on wxwidgets
ACTION: Piñeiro will contact Cesar Mauri about using eviacam as a app fulfilling a GNOME feature
Meg Ford has updated the info about her high contrast theme work. Cosimo Cecchi will be the developer in charge of this.

ACTION: Joanie is going to assemble a list of all the bugs in other people's modules, including this GtkScale one assuming it's not yet fixed.
Q3 ended 30 September
LINK: http://foundation.gnome.org/reports/gnome-report-2011-Q2.html
ACTION: Joanie will verify that GOK, gnome-speech, and gnome-mag are not yet deprecated in terms of the GNOME infrastructure and, if they are indeed not, send a message to the bugsquad m.l. suggesting that they be.
