 = Minutes =
+== actions from previous meeting ==
+=== gozala to create a branch containing only the loader in preparation for landing it in firefox ===
+* hasn't happened yet
+* gozala wants to move to packageless tree with only a lib/ directory first
+* currently loader doesn't support differentiation between core and third-party modules
+* changes that need to be made to loader: https://github.com/mozilla/addon-sdk/wiki/JEP-Linker
+* gozala wants to make those changes first before cutting branch and preparing for integration
+* likely to take a few weeks
+* seems like it won't be possible to land it in Firefox 14, but it will be possible to land it in Firefox 15
+* would be useful to have loader ready for landing by Firefox work week
+* gozala will try to make that happen but can't promise it because of other responsibilities
+=== gozala to finalize proposal for a packageless sdk ===
+* https://github.com/mozilla/addon-sdk/wiki/JEP-Packageless
+* https://github.com/mozilla/addon-sdk/wiki/JEP-Linker
+* https://github.com/mozilla/addon-sdk/wiki/CFX-py
+'''DONE!'''
+=== myk & dietrich to draft mission statement/statement of principles for jetpack features ===
+* myk drafted https://wiki.mozilla.org/Jetpack/Features#Principles
+* check it out and give feedback
+* dietrich likes it at first glance
+'''DONE!'''
+=== mixedpuppy to point gozala at stuff labs projects do a lot with sdk ===
+* mixedpuppy is never certain he's using sandboxing correctly
+* being able to have a library that allows using a sandbox without being concerned about whether we're doing it correctly
+* -> gozala to create priority list of individual modules to land in Firefox by four weeks from today
+=== mixedpuppy identify set of topics to speak about at mozcamp argentina ===
+* mixedpuppy identified three topics:
+** privacy issues
+** social API stuff being worked on now
+** WebIntents actions types of APIs
+* didn't plan anything around Jetpack, but others are doing so
+* Jorge, Hernan are doing addon talks, Hernan about Add-on SDK specifically and Jorge an overview of methodologies available for addon development
+* Hernan will be at one of the two MDN events in addition to mozcamp
+* entire Jetpack team will go to at least one mozcamp, mossop will provide team with list of events
+* entire Firefox team will do the same, still waiting on dates from mozcamp organizers
+== whatever else folks want to talk about ==
+* -> gozala and dietrich to meet re: what needs to be done to land loader
+* dietrich wrote quick guide to bundling addons: how to do it, when to do it
+* pdf.js landed like that, about:telemetry is going to land like that, other projects also in pipeline
+* https://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox/BundlingAdd-ons
+* dietrich will point people at principles to explain value proposition
+* value proposition based on experience bundling test pilot
+* dietrich will meet with pdf.js folks re: the problems they've experienced (testing, l10n?)
+* those are folks without experience writing core code or addon code
+* but they don't necessarily need it to contribute to feature
+* would be great to enable people to contribute to features without understanding build infrastructure or even addon infrastructure
+* mixedpuppy will be entirely focused on figuring out rest of steps for landing amigo and share and otherwise distracted by two weeks in south america
