Documentation (Taru)
- Taru Laine will be on holiday from 15 to 25 April.
- We had a documentation status meeting yesterday. The minutes are here: http://wiki.meego.com/SDK/Documentation/MeetingMinutes/20110413#Agenda
- In the meeting we discussed the following topics:
- Installation process should be ready for documenting by the end of this week.
- All the documentation features have now been assigned. The only features without owners are the ones related to OBS packaging and installation. Netbook UX guidelines was postponed to a later release unless we get more resources or material on this.
- New MeeGo 1.2 SDK features in Bugzilla needed for creating instructions for developing with MeeGo chroot and Xephyr. AP: Bob Spencer has an action point on this.
- We also need more detailed information on the process and timetables for publishing the SDK content on the DMC publishing site. This is crucial for us to be able to finish the documentation on time. The schedule for documentation is very tight.
- AP: Schedule proposal for documents: when due.
- AP: Get quality documentation process: tech review, language review, approval.
- Open issues:
- Which performance testing tools are supported by MeeGo 1.2 SDK?
- Installation/packaging instructions for OBS - can these included in the developer library?
- Testing tools publicized?
QA (Juha)
- Testing
- Testing not done last and this week because no weekly sysroot images available for ARM.
- Testlink (tl.meego.com) is not available. Needs some security checkings to get it available. Adam Gretzinger from Intel is working on it.
- Intel team (Ionut Gavez) tested tablet release / installer
