GSoC Update
- Magdalen stopped work with the tracker last friday and waits for mentors confirm whether or not a patch can be made from it.
- Magdalen has been using g-ir-doc-tools to make documentation for atspi in javascript.
- Magdalen is hosting the files for times when the documents need to be discussed with mentors.
Magdalen filed bug 703422 about documentation for atspi in javascript which Piñeiro reviewed and spoke to her about.
Magdalen started working on magnifier.js
- Magdalen asked Joseph to break magnifier up so that each name space has its own .js file because she is getting confused by the amount of stuff in there but Joseph said doing that would be too much of a distraction.
- Magdalen already edited gsettings before speaking to Joseph about it.
- Magdalen made a video for mentors to check focus/select tracking is doing because she could not be sure what they meant about the log from focus/select.
- Joseph worked with Magdalen at the end of last week to check the tracker code and its logs to make sure it was doing the right thing.
- Joseph still needs to look at the final code on Magdalen's github, but he believes they arrived at the point of making a patch.
- Joseph sent out email about next steps vis-a-vis integrating the tracker with the magnifier.
- Joseph's advice is to leave the gsettings aspect aside for the moment, but notest that it will need to be address as part of this GSoC.

Magdalen also added jhbuild configurations to github.
- Regarding spliiting up magnifier.js into separate files, not only is it a distraction, but it is wrong. It is wrong because it fragments the "Magnifier" namespace.
- Joanie is wondering if anyone knows of the top of their head when the evaluations are due?
- ACTION: Joanie will look for the date and procedure for mid-point GSoC evaluations.
