Miro 4.0 status (roadmap)
- lots of flux in git-master, but the code is stabilizing
- working on metadata support, device syncing, performance enhancements,
extensions, streaming to other devices (ipad, ...), ...
- working on project infrastructure: wiki, nightlies, nightly runs of
unit tests, ...
- probably a release in May or June--we're working hard on it!
Will:
- Spent most of the time on BD. Long drama, but it should be fine
now. I spent most of the time addressing privacy issues, but also
did some restructuring as well.
- Worked on upsizing issues with conversions. Pretty sure I have it
fixed, but since the changes are pervasive, I want to do more
testing. I didn't have to do anything outlandish like I had feared last
week, so that's good.
Paul:
- spent some time fixing Miro Guide issues, mostly django errors
- worked on P1 bugs, mostly ui stuff
Jonas:
- continued working on P1 bugs
- added support for hex-encoded magnet URIs
Geoffrey:
- working on P1 bugs, particularly ui bugs
Ben:
- working on P1 bugs
- finished up keyboard shortcut issues--should be pretty solid now
Janet:
- spent a bunch of time with sikuli tests and Miro
- worked on testing Universal Subtitles
- working on testing things and writing new tests so we continue to
increase the regression tests
Order of business:
- Talked about where we're at with Miro 4.0. Lot of newly created
bugs over the last week, but we're pretty much done with new
features. Seems like we're just working on bugs now. Getting close
to a point where we could do a release candidate.
- git master is in pretty heavy flux right now and because of that
nightlies are probably unstable--use them at your own risk. This
will sort itself over time when there are fewer massive changes
being made. If you're interested in testing, but don't want to test
bleeding edge, then it's worth waiting until we hit the release
candidate portion of the dev cycle. We're currently thinking that'll
be in a couple of weeks.
- Miro is developed by a community of people including you! If you
can't contribute your time and work to development, testing, and
translations, please consider contributing funding
by donating. Your
money goes directly to ongoing development of Miro and related
projects like Miro Community
and Universal
Subtitles.
See http://pculture.org/about/
for more details on these projects.
- Did you know there's a Miro User Manual? If you haven't looked at
it yet, it's worth taking a look at. You can find it
at http://manual.getmiro.com/.
