  • Today we will post a message requesting users to test the nightly builds ahead of RC1 as we have a large number of issues that are fixed. Sigrid created a video explaining how to download and test nightlies.

Extensions:

  • We should properly define people who manage our extensions (weblinks, Patchtester, search, JoRobo) and list them here.
    • Deprecate search for the future
    • Create working groups for each extension - Benjamin Trenkle
    • Create magazine article for JoRobo - Philip Walton
  • Weblinks and JoRobo got some work done in the last few days. Hopefully we will be able to release a JoRobo 1.0 by the end of June and a Weblinks 4.1 around the same time.
