===0.3 recap===
* With 0.3 we did exactly what we were trying to avoid doing: slush the code for almost two months. This may not be the right place or time, but I don't now what is. So, with that in mind, perhaps we should discuss:
** What went wrong?
** What went right?
** How can we move forward faster in the future?
** (We have one-two months until 0.5 according to the original schedule iirc, BTW).
===0.3 Status===
*Released
*[https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=356261 lightning-wcap builds don't function properly] (some users reported that the wcap-enabler prefs are not set)

===0.5 Planning===
* lilmatt's wish list/backlog - We need a higher level plan though :)
** STRING -> VARCHAR schema change
** Data Migrator (and CalExt disabler)
** BUILD SUNBIRD FROM BRANCH
** l10n tinderbox builds (so l10ners can check their stuff before release)
** remainder of iMIP/iTIP
** Lightning printing
** Mac window management
** X-props in VALARM, VCALENDAR, and VTIMEZONE (abstract out property bag)
** Advanced tab with about:config
** aus update checking
** foreign timezone support
** new timezone db
** Google calendar provider
** Sort out "foreign" provider story (WCAP, Google, etc.)
** Lightning langpacks
** Universal binary for Sunbird
** Refactor C++ to use frozen interfaces where possible

==sipaq's meeting notes==
===0.3 Recap===
* Many late high-risk fixes went in, which pushed the release date further away
* We were on track until Joey went off to law school
* We should sooner have started to cut feature work, need to improve that for 0.5
* Releasing from both branch and trunk made everything more complicated for developers and localizers
* We need a tinderbox for branch and one for the trunk. Talk with preed about this
* It would be nice to get a dedicated l10n tinderbox or to hook up Sunbird to the regular l10n tinderboxen
* General feedback from localizers was good
** general communication and communication about possible issues was good
** working for Sunbird is more relaxed than for FF or TB. Localizers seem to appreciate that
** ssitter helped a lot with his regular langpack builds and with his compare-locale runs
** we need to work with pike on getting calendar/locales added to automated l10n test runs (sipaq will contact pike)
* Our testing exposure went up quite a lot with the RCs, but then it was too late (mostly)
** ctalbert to organize bi-weekly test days
** it would be great to get some automated tests up (e.g. importing .ics calendars from top calendar sites)
** testing probably also went up, because 0.3 was our first big release since the rearchitecture work

===0.3 status===
* yay, we released the beast :-)
* Some locales (da and ru) are asking for respins. sipaq to compile a list of broken locales for possible respinning
* would be nice to get bouncer stats

===0.5 plans===
* things that were cut from 0.3 are obvious candidates for 0.5
* 0.3 branch tinderboxen now build from trunk again
* New UI proposal should be implemented for 0.5. We got a lot of good feedback about that from users
* We need high-level goals for 0.5 (e.g. better Thunderbird integration)
* We should aim for a release date somewhere in the first half of January
* Qualcomm just announced that it will build Eudora from the Thunderbird codebase.
** Possible that new mail/news developers come on board
** Perhaps new calendar developers come on board as well?
