Agenda for IRC Weekly meeting

Status Updates:

• 0.4.2 release
  • Barring major changes, we'll tag 0.4.2 this time next week.  There are 6 open tickets, and most can be punted
• Core split (0.9)
  • As the split begins, ported core modules will appear in the svn /dojo/dojo/trunk (a peer to dijit project).
  • This will not be a free for all where Alex does all the work!
    • Alex will be working 1-1 with module owners to coordinate drops
    • Module owners are on the hook for helping to port, write tests, and docs for all functions in your modules.
    • There is a wiki page for the porting guide here.
  • All checkins to the new dojo core project (and dijit) will require a milestone-related ticket (enforced via svn)
    • To close the ticket, you must provide at least a skeleton section for the module in the porting guide that describes the mapping from /trunk to /dojo/trunk,/dijit/trunk,/dojox/trunk at a high level.

• This is to ensure that we people can go to the wiki page on the porting guide to see current migration status of any particular module.

Files in modules which have migrated out of trunk will be locked via svn:needs-lock to prohibit further changes

• New website
  • tk still waiting on the layout which Tom is trying to get to.

• Progress has been made on Paging/Sorting api for dojo.data

Issues for discussion/vote:

1. We'd like to get closure on the dojo.data api issues around search params (important for scenarios like type-ahead where a Select control is bound to the dojo.data api's for it's drop-down list contents).   There are a couple of options already described in the "DEFERRED ISSUES" section of this page.
