Feed is paused, Tarako lives, Guillotine happening,
Code freeze in an hour (Kumar is push hero)
Kumar, let's sync up on a plan
push docs: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Marketplace/PushDuty
Eideticker outliers fixed: http://eideticker.mozilla.org/b2g/#/inari/b2g-marketplace-startup/timetostableframe
Tarako device exists there, but times aren't accurate yet
Marketplace on datazilla (cold load start time): https://datazilla.mozilla.org/b2g/?branch=v1.3t&device=tarako&range=7&test=cold_load_time&app_list=marketplace,messages,phone&app=phone&gaia_rev=f0872318d46781bb&gecko_rev=32bb713e6d0d&plot=avg
We're pretty average. Check the boxes on the left to see more apps.
Status Updates:
clouserw updated https://metaplace.paas.allizom.org/apikiosk/ . So much Tarako.
kumar: getting Boku to work https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=987661
ashort: final touches on guillotine, switching to custom user model
ngoke: tarako
spasovski: tarako
mat: perf, tarako
robhudson: landing https://github.com/mozilla/zamboni/pull/1960, catching up on a few stats bugs, then some guillotine work on zamboni. Check out pycon videos at http://pyvideo.org/category/50/pycon-us-2014
Apr 4, 10am PDT
https://prs.paas.allizom.org/mozilla/zamboni is pretty cool
Feed v1 plan is to *not* launch it on Tarako as it will likely be a performance hit and will need to be optimized/tweaked/dogfooded/etc. Would be nice to see some A/B testing in Europe or something. Chuck has a plan to share!
Not too much of a plan, really. We're going to package the `feed` branch of Fireplace and distribute it on Marketplace as "Marketplace Aurora" or whatever, with the cutesy purple icon (right?!). It will keep the somewhat major changes cleanly separate for now and allow dogfooding and community feedback before we roll it out to the community at large.
Tarako
Working with UX to figure out will be going on the phone for Tarako
We are looking at other UIs and other interaction models
Feed is not going on Tarako

Contribution from bwalker (via http://boingboing.net/2014/03/19/gamestop-as-a-fee-free-conven.html):
JWZ's law states that "Every program attempts to expand until it can read mail." A corollary is that every complex system expands until it becomes a bank.

272315 pull requests open for zamboni alone. Let's devote Friday after 1pm to open pull requests and get that down to zero.
Next Tuesday (afternoon) and Wednesday (morning) tune in to air mozilla to see updates from across the whole apps ecosystem. PST
Upvote this call for contributors! https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7361095
several updates to http://jugband.paas.allizom.org/ - check it out for a summary of current status.
Operator dashboard has been successfully defined, designed, and estimated and is waiting for us to have time to do it. This is a big deal, because generally we don't have projects waiting in the pipeline all bundled up and ready.
Feed v1 has been successfully defined, designed, and estimated and we're actively working on it.
Developer and Payment choice are almost ready from a UX point of view to be pushed into development when ready.
Both of the examples above are evidence of our new process for working with UX/prod/etc and following the steps for our project lifecycle. It's been a lot less stressful than previous projects (I'm so confident in that I'll say "ask anyone involved" even when I'm not there to support my claims!) and is helping us refine the flow. I'm (clouserw) looking forward to working on future projects that use the new system and I think y'all will too.
New manager starts next week!
Anything from mailing lists to talk about?
Feature detection issues?
Marketplace hang around - next thurs

Feb 21, 10am PST
Our goals exist in public now: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Marketplace/2014_Goals
Triage meeting strategy proposal:
New 60-90min meeting. Required attendees are at least one representative from QA and one from Dev. Meeting triages all new, unprioritized bugs.
Meeting is open to anyone to participate
All individual componenent triage meetings are cancelled
There might be triage meetings focused on features being worked on eg: Android
They aren't mutually exclusive; we should be doing both
Conclusion: Developers are split on which way we should triage. Let's try it for a couple weeks so we can get better data.
Any RFCs to talk about?
