Suggest items for dev chat agenda for July 30 dev chat. Note the day/time for dev chat may be changing in response to last week’s survey. New day/time will be posted here, on dev blogblog (versus network, site), on @wordpress twitter, and set as topic in dev channel tomorrow.

Agenda for Wednesday Dev Chat today in IRCIRC Internet Relay Chat, a network where users can have conversations online. IRC channels are used widely by open source projects, and by WordPress. The primary WordPress channels are #wordpress and #wordpress-dev, on irc.freenode.net.. Starts with a little housekeeping, then switches to implementation.

  • Meeting day/time (change to not-Wednesday) (Jane)
  • Closure 2.0 branchbranch A directory in Subversion. WordPress uses branches to store the latest development code for each major release (3.9, 4.0, etc.). Branches are then updated with code for any minor releases of that branch. Sometimes, a major version of WordPress and its minor versions are collectively referred to as a "branch", such as "the 4.0 branch". (Mark J)
  • MetaMeta Meta is a term that refers to the inside workings of a group. For us, this is the team that works on internal WordPress sites like WordCamp Central and Make WordPress. tables (DD32)
  • Edit lock (Mark J/Andrew Ozz)
  • Anything left over

The way the edit lock works now, if you close your browser with the post open, the lock will stay in effect until it times out. Might it not be better if we shortened the edit lock time to something like 120 seconds and kept it locked via an XHR every 90 seconds that the edit screen for that post is open?

Dev chat time: apparently in Europe some countries have no school on Wednesdays, and that is seen as a family day. Can we move dev chat to another day to allow non-US people time with their kids? In that vein, 5pm on the east coast also cuts into kid time, maybe we could work out a schedule so that the time changes between two time slots (same day) each week, so that no geographic location is unduly burdened in this way (or forced to get up at 5am every single week, etc).

The blog for our Summer of Code students at http://gsoc2009wp.wordpress.com/ wasn’t allowing people to leave comments when they tried last night after dev chat. There was a discussion setting still set to require registration, but this has now been turned off, so everyone should feel free to leave feedback and/or ask questions of the students on the blog.
