August 13 dev chat agenda: We have more topics than can realistically fit into an hour, so I’m going to suggest that for some of them we have a cutoff after 10 minutes to determine whether the topic requires more time, and push continued discussion to a Trac thread, a post here on wpdevel, or another IRC that we could set up for tomorrow or next week sometime other than the regular Thursday time.
Topics:
- Unresponsive script errors on widgets screen (Denis, Andrew)
- Check for plugin compatibility before upgrading, volunteer to code? (Peter)
- Indication that post is in publishing process/loading graphic/disabling other stuff (Matt Mullenweg, Andrew)
- Custom post types support (John M, Peter, Ryan, et al)
- Media features approach (Mark Jaquith, Matt Mullenweg)
- Documentation/handbooks (Jane: going to suggest setting up a separate chat for tomorrow)
- GSoC student projects

Consider a post by lead devs talking about what happened with 2.8.1, .2, .3, .4 — it doesn’t look good that we had so many security releases in a row. Perhaps we should frame them appropriately, and offset it with our ability to push security fixes quickly with the one-click WP core upgrade.

Sounds good. Write up a draft?

Will do.

I think this has already been addressed by latest release announcement and anything further would make it worse.

Is it? I don’t see anything but 2.8.4 info in the latest release announcement.

I’d also like to quickly link my
[embed]mockup patch in order to get feedback at a later date. If there’s time that is.
