RE: Aug 10 Meeting 54 Minutes Posted

I will add these comments to the minutes

Andy discussed the matter with several people at DAC (including Yoav Hollander), but as few people showed any interest in the idea, and Andy has limited time, it was decided to drop the feature. As Joe Hupcey mentioned that some users have their own in-house implementations of something similar, it was decided that the feature should be postponed rather than dropped entirely.

Thanks for the feedback

Have we had any response from Henry ? Are we now waiting on feedback from wiki before entering into Mantis (also what are we putting on wiki - the issues?? - does that mean we are entering the issues twice?)

No. The idea was that if task forces wished it (such as Yaron's ports group - he has already implemented a Twiki page), they could post the working document into Twiki and work on it there, to make collaboration easier. Any issues/changes required still need to be recorded in Mantis, as this is the reference for what I and the editor will go through when updating the documentation.


second question
Andy re :
Due to limited time and limited interest Andy proposes to delay this feature

what is the reasoning behind this ?

Perhaps we need to flesh out the minutes a little more to capture some of the reasoning behind things. They don't necessarily have to be almost verbatim as when Serrie used to do the minutes, but they perhaps need a little more than the minimal bullets we have been doing recently. Comments?

Cheers,

Darren

Hi All,

A couple of questions on the minutes
Mike/Henry re:

Types (lead: Mike Bartley)

 *   Parameterized types

 *   Real data type

 *   Aug 10 Update -
    *   Have not yet put items into Mantis.
    *   Plan to put draft on Wiki for further comments
 *   Previous Status
Mike and Serrie have reviewed the documents, and have e-mailed comments to Henry. To be put into Mantis.

Have we had any response from Henry ? Are we now waiting on feedback from wiki before entering into Mantis (also what are we putting on wiki - the issues?? - does that mean we are entering the issues twice?)

second question
Andy re :

Cheers
Serrie
