Thanks for the summary meeting Sean, It does give away to see that Roller is moving along and there is cooperation among all the developers.

Although, I was disappointed that no other Roller developers/users/contributors were able to attend, it was nice to have Dave to myself for almost 2 hours. We talked about a few subjects worth summarizing for the list. Roller 4.1 Release Features We added two features to the 4.1 Release Proposal * Turn Atom Publishing Protocol on by default, update documentation, and test (http and https) * Weblogs may optionally have a unique subdomain or a custom domain Dave has some code for assigning unique URLs to each blog (not checked in though, right Dave?) Roller Release Schedule and Process We also talked about the Roller Release Process. I noted that the currently documented Release Plan (which calls for monthly releases) is not being followed. I recommended moving to Eclipse-like milestone releases that would be tagged (and perhaps even branched) in Subversion, but would not go through the full testing and release process required to make a tarball. Since Dave has already committed the code for External Users, Tag Data API, and OpenSearch to the trunk, I asked him to tag it in Subversion (suggesting 4.1M1 as the tag) He seemed to think this was a good idea, but I don't want to say that he agreed to do it :) (Dave?) I'm waiting to test the External Users code with a system that I am working on, and if it works reasonably well, I will be a able to justify spending time helping with a Roller 4.1 release. I'm also looking forward to trying out subdomain and custom domain blogs. -- Sean
