Habari Party 2009

1:40pm

We're back from lunch. And starting the afternoon session. We've added another guest. So we're up to 7 people in the room plus several people online.

1:48pm

Skippy is recapping the morning. We've decided that due to the small group we're going to skip the "ignite" sessions and going into the afternoon sessions. The party is much like Habari itself. Flexibility is important.

1:50

The afternoon is starting with a discussion of why we have the model we do in terms of community involvement, mertitocracy and other aspects of the "Habari Philosophy"

2:05

Caius asked why we don't do unit testing consistantly. The discussion of not just how to get testing integrated but also how to lead people towards the "best-practices" that we advocate has begun. We're talking about how help people get started with new things like documentation, testing, etc.

2:55

We're back from break. We had a great discussion about internationalization. It was suggested that we need to have a session at some point in the future that focuses on that aspect.

3:00

Michael Bishop asked, via IRC, about the status of Mult-Site installations, both it's current status and plans for the future.

3:38

I finished my "presentation" regarding contributing to Open Source for non-coders. We've been joined by Elizabeth and Lisa. And we're summing up the day.
