I'd like to see an agenda, before we schedule a meeting. (The length of the meeting affects whether and when I can attend.)
While Laszlo Systems has been quiet on the dev list, it seems they have some full-time staff assigned to the project. I'd like to see it on github, but that's not actually stopping me from doing anything. Maybe I'm in a different position from others since I have commit rights and work with some folks who knows LZX and are capable of making LFC changes, so we were able to contribute back the bugs we fixed this week, which is important to me since I don't particularly want to maintain a fork of OpenLaszlo for my company or my clients. To help drive an agenda: * What problems are people having that are not being met by the current open source structure and process? * In addition to Sebastian volunteering a server and Tucker and me volunteering to do periodic code reviews, who else is willing to help and what would you like to do, specifically? Thanks!
