I have an agenda item for the meeting. Bill Pugh (who develops FindBugs) is in town and would be able to talk to us about how to use FindBugs to not only scrub the existing code base (lots of boring work to clean up the code) but to report on bugs recently introduced by commits so they can be rectified while still fresh. Bill would be able to make a presentation to the group and then discuss the strategy to implement. It could also be done as a straight conference call but Bill is an engaging speaker and I'd recommend taking some time to listen to him in person.

So it looks like the best all-around time is the 6th or 7th of August,
with the second-best being somewhere around the 19th or 20th of July.

Any more opinions about these dates?

Hi,

It turns out that a number of people on this list are based in or

reviews etc.; I think it probably makes sense for us to do a
face-to-face meeting open to all interested parties somewhere in the
Bay area.

I'm sure that it'll be easy to find meeting space somewhere, so
probably the big constraints are interest and schedules.

So:

a. Are you interested in such an event?

b. Does anyone have any particular time constraints?


To get things started, my responses are:

> a. Are you interested in such an event?

Yes.

The weeks of August 6-10 and August 13-17 are no good for me.

Of course, it's important to remember that inevitably, not everyone

must be careful not to disenfranchise people who cannot make the

future of the project (IMO, it's ok to discuss and brainstorm etc.,
but such discussions must turn into dialogs on the email list).
Additionally, we should make sure that someone is taking notes for
non-attendees, and that when possible, we maintain dial-in
capabilities for people who want to participate virtually.


Thanks,

-Patrick
