launchpad development
Agenda of the next Launchpad review team meeting
Launchpad review team meetings are held on #launchpad-meeting on irc.freenode.net, and are chaired by BarryWarsaw for both the Asia/Pacific (AsiaPac) and Americas/EU (AMEU) time zone meetings. We use MootBot to record the meetings.
The purpose of the meetings is to coordinate Launchpad code reviews, and particularly to ensure that emerging issues with the review process are addressed - such as getting people to take on tough reviews, keeping the latency down, etc.. Blockage in reviews leads to blockage in Launchpad code landings.
The next Launchpad review team meeting will be held at this time:
AMEU Wednesday 22-Apr-2009 1500 UTC - 1545 UTC
AsiaPac Wednesday 22-Apr-2009 2230 UTC - 2315 UTC

Notes

- What is the goal (are the goals?) of our use of security proxies and the import nazi? My understanding is that they are "belt and suspenders" to try and keep us from revealing private information.
- Do we still agree with those goals?
- Do we feel that our use of security proxies helps us with these goals?
- Do we feel that our use of the import nazi helps us with these goals?
As we know, security is very hard, and trying to answer these questions well should not be done lightly or too quickly.
I am hopeful that the small, specific question of whether we should import removeSecurityProxies in view code will fall out obviously, if not easily, from our answers to the discussion above.
