Hi guys, We had our Mixxx 1.8 meeting today and the slides are now available for your reading pleasure here: http://docs.google.com/Present?docid=dd557nj5_28fvx8jkgx&skipauth=true These provide a decent overview of the current state of Mixxx development.
There's also minutes to go along with the slides here: http://mixxx.org/wiki/doku.php/5_17_2009_developer_meeting_minutes To summarize the meeting briefly: - Our main focus of 1.8 will be the new library and looping. - We'd also like to see development continue on M4A support, MIDI, LADSPA, Shoutcast, and the BPM detection (using BPMDJ's code). If any of these features are finished by the time looping and the library are done, they will be included with Mixxx 1.8. - We'd like to encourage new contributors to hack away at LADSPA and Shoutcast since they're reasonably modular and only need relatively minor work to finish them up. - All new feature development will be done in branches. When features are done (release quality), they'll be merged into trunk. The slides show the 1.8 branch as being the target of these merges, but the consensus was that "trunk" will be the target. The 1.8 branch will be created once a feature freeze is in place. - Bugfixes should go in the existing 1.7 branch. Once we have enough bugfixes, we'll drop a 1.7.1 release, etc. - We're going to work on some sort of "Getting Started" page for new Mixxx contributors that explains all of our branches, development process, etc. - RJ's been working on some super secret build server stuff that he'll announce sometime in the future. :) If there's anything else I forgot, please send an email! Thanks for attending guys, and I hope this info is useful for people that weren't able to come as well.
