Previous meeting's action items

See Community testing meetings/2008-11-13#Action items

Time change

Pre-meeting

Any objections to moving the meeting time 1hr later so testers in NZ can more easily attend (during their Fri. lunch break)?

During meeting

No objections; moved.

Requests for testing

Pre-meeting

New section - these are things that people have requested testing for. Possible fun independent projects, but lower priority than the current overarching goal (test G1G1 Activities).

During meeting

This needs an activity or collection page and a test case (unless we come up with generic "Generic activity test.") Waiting for them to reply, no action taken - although anyone is free to pick it up if they are interested.

Test Jam

Pre-meeting

Should we have a virtual one? (Would it help reach our goal?) (See last week's meeting minutes for context.)

During meeting

Deferred to when we have a better idea of how to test Activities.

Friends in testing vs. Community testing

Pre-meeting

S Page thinks their mission is the same, therefore merge?

During meeting

General agreement. Community testing becomes place for planning community testing, Friends in testing is where we make the call for testers when ready.

There's definitely two testing areas/interests -- "I want to run bleeding edge" and "I'll let people know what I find running activities". But the first is dormant right now

Action items

  • mchua to present possible resources and resource sources for community testers via any means available, talking with SJ and Kim if possible. (This has been deferred for two weeks, and we should move forward even as people are busy with G1G1.)
  • skierpage to make Friends in testing say "ramping up gently".
  • mchua to make sure that joef and m_stone are ok with the Friends in Testing and Community testing merge.
  • bjordan, gregdek, Caryl, Wellington testers: Continue testing Activities; use (and edit!)
