2017-02-01

 * A new month! Merry February to all.

Prateek

 * Very. Unproductive. Week.
 * Dealing with some extremely stupid Safeguard stuff
 * Tax time

2017-02-02

 * Happy Groundhog Day!
 * Staff breakfast today.

Mark

 * Unproductive week here, too.
 * James, I could use some product insight on Extension:3D
 * Also need to file a security review bug for it.

Matthias

 * Error warning handling patch split up
 * Fixed aborting uploads

Mark

 * Wrote patch for cursor in MMV-3d
 * Writing patch for media type addition...life is terrible
 * Security review in
 * Will hit SoS to ask for help with deployment things

James

 * Annual plan stuff
 * Tasks for 3d

Matthias

 * Was looking at setting up dashboard for UploadWizard EventLogging data
 * Anyone any experience with Dashiki?
 * Looking to respond to Firefogg going away
 * Probably remove Firefogg handler soon, it's breaking already
 * Alternatives?
 * At all possible?
 * Payload of transcoder acceptable?
 * Transcoding speed acceptable?
 * Quality?
 * What about licenses?

Mark

 * 3d extension work ramping up.
 * Thanks @James_F for the evaluation.
 * Looks like I need to help Matthias with some stuff.

Mark

 * Legal chat - patent troubles for 3D files? Will discuss.
 * Security review continuing apace.

Matthias

 * Conversion scripts on client side - disappointing. Probably backend is better.
 * EventLogging dashboards now

Matthias

 * Added 'uploadwizard' & 'uploadwizard-flickr' tags to files uploaded through UW


 * Working on making it impossible to create extensionless (or any disallowed filename) File:... pages

Matthias

 * 'uploadwizard' & 'uploadwizard-flickr' tags
 * disallow extensionless (& other invalid filenames) NS_FILE pages - may not go anywhere...

Mark

 * I'm back!
 * Will check on security review, deployment checklist, etc.

Prateek

 * OOUI things...
 * FA prototype work
 * FA (in general)
 * Where are we, where do we go?
 * Mark: We have support to finish and maintain our existing projects, so we're in a good place and we can finish FA.
 * Should we wait for Structured Data or the final WebAnnotations spec?
 * Mark: SD is farther out, and we can shift to it. WA finalization would be nice, but an incomplete spec is probably fine. I doubt they'll change it much.

2017-02-20

 * US Holiday

Mark

 * Still waiting on security review for 3D extension
 * Greg knows we plan to push things out once it's done
 * Nothing else really happening
 * I'll be in and out today, have an appointment in the afternoon

Matthias

 * Adding chunked upload to upload.js
 * Then (see if I can) remove it from UW FormDataTransport & use the one in upload.js instead

Mark

 * Security review still ongoing for 3D files.
 * Practically nothing else to report, it has been a bad week for my productivity.
 * Will review chunked upload in core and UW patch

Matthias

 * chunked upload support in upload.js
 * eventlogging data dashboard
