== Agenda ==
=== Stumbler ===
* cpeterson and dougt working with Legal and PR about privacy notice
* Play Store release is delayed a few weeks, waiting for updates for privacy notice and PR
* Guilherme implementing "battery low" intent handling
=== Server ===
* Switched local testing from sqlite to mysql to better match RDS and use some mysql specific functionality
* Reworked sql connection pooling and test db isolation
* Added explicit master/read-replica connections and use read-replica for all read-only functionality
* Bunch of minor website updates, changed [https://location.services.mozilla.com/map map to a heatmap]
* Started reading up on celery as a potential async worker / timed job scheduler with configurable backends (probably mysql at first to avoid additional ops-complexity)
=== Other ===
* TBD: Hanno travel?
* [http://opengsmloc.org/resources.html "Location Estimation Methods for Open, Privacy Preserving Mobile Positioning"], Master's thesis from Brendan Johan Lee
== Next Actions ==
* Post stumbler apk builds in a semi-official Dropbox URL and email dev-geolocation when the apk builds are updated.
* Do we need to filter (some) duplicates from stumblers? Stats page says we have ~20 measurements per AP and ~200 measurements per cell tower. Hanno says no because having even 100-1000 measurements for the same wireless network is still useful. The main reason being, that a lot of environmental factors can influence the measurements (cell towers / AP's dynamically adjusting power levels based on devices in range, different data accuracy from device sensors, different levels of interference / blockage, ...)
* Hanno planning to visit MV and SF for the first two weeks of September. \o/
