We are moving the meeting permanently to Tuesday mornings.

Discussion of the REST api. Most docs will be on the wiki. Should the docs be perldoc? No, the html version of the perldoc is on the bugzilla site. So we could keep the docs in perldoc and make our own doc site. Or, just keep using the wiki. Glob would prefer to move stuff to the wiki for easy expansion and adding our custom methods, and move away from using perldoc and the converters to html.

If we fork the core code would we need to fork the documentation? Maybe set it up like redhat does things. Glob still thinks it's better long term to shift it to the wiki.

dkl will make a new patch with docs in it.

native rest doesn't have full search yet. authentication works similarly. Heather's bugzilla.js , we may need to add some things there.

User profiles nearly ready to go but need review from dkl.

A FirefoxOS team would like to have a custom bug entry form. Which they described as a "web portal" Matt Grimes and others.

Bug Corral. Isn't this like the Input.mozilla.org form?

Byron already built this. A project called Tell us more, kicked off by input team some time ago: user input form, bugzilla would create an account if required. Confirmation email sent. If you click on email, it will upgrade into a real bug that goes into a particular product/component for triaging focused on eliminating dupes.

Lots of foxconn engineers coming in. More active BMO users mostly from Taiwan's timezone, which helps spread the load of active users. Will they want to sync bugs between whatever their system is and bugzilla?

How many active users are there in bugzilla right now?

  • dkl suggests that linux containers are another kind of virtualization that have low overhead, openhatch might look into them.

Tiziana is workign on a Firefox Addon.

Datazilla report from Kyle

Splinter is being replaced by Review Board. will need dev, stage, prod for this. It's a django app that will be quasi independent from Bugzilla. C,ick on review in Bugzilla, it takes you to Review Board, you review it, then RB updates the bugzilla bug. Need to get authentication working from bugzilla's back end.

We are still working solidifying our Q3 goals; Mark and Clint will help review them.
