== Polish ==

 * The interim spinner has landed.
 * Huw's one-line design is ready to land.
 * Some vocal beta testers are unhappy that the new layout makes poor user of wide screens.

== Hot bugs and person/team bug pages ==

 * Aaron is merging the hot bugs page with +bugs.
 * A time-out is killing person/team bug pages.
 
== Beta ==

 * The timeouts and design issues we're having mean that we won't be ready to leave beta by the 9th, so we'll re-evaluate on the 16th and consider extending again to the 23rd.
 * User interviews are going well. People approve, in general. Chris Gregan stated that multi-sort would be nice to have in future.

== Action items for the next check-point ==

 * Orange: land the improved spinner.
 * Orange: test the load that pre-fetching puts on the data centre.
 * Orange: investigate and fix timeouts.
 * Diogo and Dan: check how important it is to be able to specify sort ordering via the URL.
 * Huw: investigate if using media queries and responsive design techniques could solve the wide-screen versus narrow screen issue.
 * Huw: make the text in the status and importance icons easier to read.
 * Huw: address the weighting and arbitary colour problems with the status and importance icons: users tell us status is more important but right now importance is easier to spot.
 * Orange: hot bugs page to merged with +bugs.
