* Offline/online bug triage net results - two weeks ago started with 39 bugs with  no comment since 2007-08-01, now down to 17 bugs. (in fact only 17 have no comments before 2008-05-30) So, a qualified success - but would be great if more people were comfortable working on them :)

*** If the potential reviewers (I am thinking bienvenu and Standard8?) could start to look at [http://hg.mozilla.org/users/bugmail_asutherland.org/index.cgi/gloda/ the repository], probably starting from [http://hg.mozilla.org/users/bugmail_asutherland.org/index.cgi/gloda/file/d2a13bb0a3d2/modules/gloda.js modules/gloda.js], that would be great.

**** Standard8 probably won't have time; dmose volunteered
*** we should probably plan on tele-con walkthroughs after some initial familiarization/review has occurred.  I had done one with dmose and bienvenu back when dmose was up in Vancouver, and that went pretty well.  A lot has happened since then, though, so bienvenu might still want in on such a walkthrough.  We should probably do this after I get at least the first batch of unit tests out.
