[2008-03-12 14:04:35] <PhilippL> Anybody new ?
[2008-03-12 14:04:36] <shaunmcdonald> Welcome new devs joining Mac OS X port
[2008-03-12 14:05:36] <PhilippL> Seems not so ?
[2008-03-12 14:06:00] <shaunmcdonald> nope
[2008-03-12 14:06:03] <PhilippL> 2. Current state of the open CWS's
[2008-03-12 14:06:22] <PhilippL> DEV300m2 is out containg aquavcl05, aquafilepicker02 and nativeprintdlg01
[2008-03-12 14:06:41] <PhilippL> aquavcl06 is resynced to m2, work can continure
[2008-03-12 14:07:15] <fne> aqua11y01 will be built for QA tomorrow
[2008-03-12 14:07:28] <fne> currently resyncing to m2
[2008-03-12 14:07:32] -->| b_osi_ (n=chatzill@212.23.103.59) has joined #ooo_macport
[2008-03-12 14:08:34] <PhilippL> Any other CWS news ?
[2008-03-12 14:08:43] <shaunmcdonald> are there are any other mac port related CWS just now?
[2008-03-12 14:08:48] <obr> ericb is testing quicklookplugin01
[2008-03-12 14:09:25] <obr> but he found out the apple plugin does a better job when fooled about the type
[2008-03-12 14:09:47] <hdu_hh> pdffix02 is ready4qa
[2008-03-12 14:10:22] <shaunmcdonald> 8-)
[2008-03-12 14:10:37] <PhilippL> 3. Website update 
[2008-03-12 14:10:48] <obr> as Apple registers its plugin for odt only, our plugin could utilize qlmanage to get better results
[2008-03-12 14:12:00] <PhilippL> I propose to link to DEV300m3 when it's out as the new "reference"
[2008-03-12 14:12:35] <shaunmcdonald> PhilippL: Why not m2?
[2008-03-12 14:12:52] <PhilippL> m3 will be the feature freeze build after the feature freeze :-)
[2008-03-12 14:13:15] <PhilippL> meaning some people (including me) didn't quite get their act together for m2
[2008-03-12 14:13:59] <shaunmcdonald> when is it likely to be available?
[2008-03-12 14:14:08] <PhilippL> integration has begun.
[2008-03-12 14:14:27] <PhilippL> BTW: there is nothing really against linking to m2 now and m3 when it's out.
[2008-03-12 14:14:50] <shaunmcdonald> that's what I was thinking of doing
[2008-03-12 14:15:41] <shaunmcdonald> and doing a little publicity too
[2008-03-12 14:15:43] <PhilippL> great !
[2008-03-12 14:15:53] <PhilippL> any other comments regarding the website ?
[2008-03-12 14:17:10] <PhilippL> 4. Mac porter meeting in Hamburg ? 
[2008-03-12 14:17:32] |<-- b_osi has left freenode (Read error: 113 (No route to host))
[2008-03-12 14:17:32] <PhilippL> shaunmcdonald: you suggested a meeting to be held in hamburg ?
[2008-03-12 14:17:41] <shaunmcdonald> yes
[2008-03-12 14:18:03] <PhilippL> who else of the macporters would be interested ?
[2008-03-12 14:18:18] <PhilippL> I guess the Sun people will be largely available of course :-)
[2008-03-12 14:18:26] <fne> true
[2008-03-12 14:18:34] <shaunmcdonald> I'm waiting on a VIP to get back to me next week on the dates that makes it possible for him to attend
[2008-03-12 14:18:35] -->| dave_largo (n=drichard@207.22.154.120) has joined #ooo_macport
[2008-03-12 14:18:35] <obr> sure
[2008-03-12 14:19:09] <shaunmcdonald> looking at some point in the next ~3 months
[2008-03-12 14:20:32] <shaunmcdonald> is there anyone else looking at going?
[2008-03-12 14:20:38] <shaunmcdonald> from the community?
[2008-03-12 14:23:10] <PhilippL> That makes the choice of a date easier :-)
[2008-03-12 14:24:01] <shaunmcdonald> Is anyone else going to http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/GoOOCon_2008 ?
[2008-03-12 14:25:48] <PhilippL> No idea yet.
[2008-03-12 14:26:47] <shaunmcdonald> The next meeting that is coming up is the WWDC
[2008-03-12 14:26:56] <shaunmcdonald> there is no date yet
[2008-03-12 14:27:33] <shaunmcdonald> though we need to start thinking now about who is going to go, and funding for it
[2008-03-12 14:28:50] |<-- paveljanik has left freenode ("Leaving")
[2008-03-12 14:30:55] <shaunmcdonald> in previous years the WWDC has been really useful in the development of OpenOffice.org on the mac, so hopefully it will be the same this year
[2008-03-12 14:31:56] <PhilippL> Yes. It might also be an opportunity to show OOo around.
[2008-03-12 14:32:34] <shaunmcdonald> of course
[2008-03-12 14:32:45] <shaunmcdonald> there was a lot of interest in ooo aqua at CeeBit
[2008-03-12 14:35:45] <PhilippL> ok, let's discuss this further on the mailing list. I'll also ask ssa for comment as this involves budget decisions.
[2008-03-12 14:36:03] <PhilippL> 5. Roundtable
[2008-03-12 14:36:14] <PhilippL> Any other open points ?
[2008-03-12 14:38:22] <shaunmcdonald> not at the moment
