Notes

• paul_p and hdl confirm DB update issues fixed on new_acq branch, which was main non-bug blocker. Alpha due out in next day or two (by Nov 6). RC1 3-4 weeks after that.
• 3.0.4 released. 3.0.5 due in the near future, which will include some translation fixes. chris will notify when translations are ready. This will likely be the last 3.0.x release
• Wiki relicensing ballot still open, votes need to be assessed. non-voters have been contacted by thd, and some of them have since voted. Second round of contact to be made. Currently voting is about 50% of electorate. Kados is still a holdout, and could sway the vote.

Proposed action

• Keep voting period open until next meeting
  • after meeting, update wiki to state any new content falls under GPL version 2 or later (unless explicitly licensed more permissively)
  • Mark any content clearly originating from 'yes' voters as GPL
  • If necessary, tag any CC-BY-NC content, and mark it for replacement (as 3.2 will demand updated documentation)
  • thd to ask SFLC opinion on theory of joint authorship
• Next meeting will be held Dec. 2 10:00 UTC+0. Foundation Forming IRC Meeting, 3 December 2009 1900 UTC+0 (Time negotiable if anyone objects by Nov 15th).
