  • Discussion of search, see bug 443944
  • Customer satisfaction metrics for the KB for 0.7 -- plan?

  • Roundtable

August 19 2008

  • Welcome back and update for our glorious leader
  • 0.6.2 ([3]) will go out tonight (bug 451055
  • What bugs for 0.6.3? [4] Only 12 in there right now (See 0.7 for further candidates [5])
    • Code freeze 8/28, push 9/2
  • New contractor starting next week (John Waller)

August 5 2008

  • Set dates for 0.6.2 (Suggest freeze 8-12 or 8-14)
  • Live chat updates from Jive (XSS to be fixed in 3.5.3 < 1 month away, DOS issue will not be fixed).
  • 0.6.2 quick triage [7]
  • Updating TikiWiki to latest version, and merge stuff upstream [nelson]. Aiming for 0.7 and work will be done in https://svn.mozilla.org/projects/sumo/branches/tiki-upgrade/
  • Check Bugs between now and 0.7 to see what we're missing from the forum aspects of the SUMO vision document. Basically:
    • Email notifications, including links to yes, this answered my question and no, it didn't bug 444335
    • Offer various ways for users to keep track of their asked questions, e.g. an Add Bookmark button, an RSS feed, and the e-mail notification system described above. (Feeds in bug 422001, decided against bookmarks, too confusing for users.)
    • Support for forums in different languages. (What's needed here? Create a page of links to localized forums?)
    • Per-post connection to customer satisfaction, meaning the contributor providing the solution to the problem receives karma. (Karma system needs more thought before we can do this one. Tiki has a built in karma system that we should be able to reuse/bend to our needs.)
