New Format

For the month of November, we're trying a new format. Each week we will have an MC who will do a quick (no more than 5 minute) update on where our various projects are. Then we'll have an open forum to announce specific project meetings and/or any announcements, questions, topics, or frustrations people want to elevate.

  • Changes to the bug entry form for Legal department.
  • Some incremental work on Pulse/REST/Performance.

     - Fix in mail queue system to reuse DB handles instead of new ones
for each email notification.

  •  Some UI improvements

     - hiding email recipient list for normal accounts
