Warning: this is a draft 

 (Eric Bachard) :
Introduction of the meeting: 
 - status of Macport
 - objectives and last news
 - Technical description of work in progress
 
Technical points to fix together:

1) reorganize the tree for native version ( ericb'd vote for an obr task :-)  )

2) improve configure for both Aqua and X11 version /  ( Claude Lohmaier )

either)
- modify configure step : provide config.parms.aqua, config.parms.X11 containing specific Mac OS X command line, and just use 
./configure --with-config.parms=config.parms.aqua ( or config.parms.X11 )   

or) or fix configure. Current issues : bad or wrong/missing autodetection of things

- session (workshop ?)  about native controls implementation : code review/design or continue the work 
 in case everything is not ready
 - current work in progress: fonts ( multiline sallayout : understand what has to be done, describe the todo) 
 - workshop about debugging OpenOffice.org on Mac OS X : gdb .. maybe complete with leaks and/or other tools ?
Possible action items : 

- discuss and define a precise todolist
- divide the work 
- describe party : describe with words and sentences what has exactly to be done for missing parts:  
Where in the code, who can provide informations, tips...etc
- write a list of missing classes and methods.
- define code intregration strategy
- define rules for code review based on wiki
- define a plan for Aqua Human Interface Guidelines integration ( modify menus ? ) 

Other subjects for what volunteers can propose workshops :
 
 - Debuging /using tools for track and /or analyse bugs (very well adapted to workshops)
