= GTK+ Team Meeting - 2011-03-08 =

• 3.2 planning
  - 6 months cycle
  - branch master soon
  - 3.2 bugs tagged in bugzilla
  ACTION: everyone should go over the list

• 3.0.2
  - tristan's size-request caching/performance work
  - new enumeration value + new vfunc
  - reasonable to backport
  - opens the way to new enumeration values
  - coding defensively might not always be possible
  - needs more testing and discussion
  ACTION: more reviews are required

• GtkFileChooser refactoring
  - clean up internals
  - split up all components
  - make some of them public (e.g. path bar)
  - clean up UI to match Nautilus3
  ACTION: federico should begin working on it

• Deprecate GDK_NATIVE_WINDOW
  - should have been removed for 3.0
  - removes a source of bugs by simplifying code
  - already a patch for master
  ACTION: Company to apply the patch

• Pictures library
  - name still an issue
  - target: 3.2
  - impact depends on the usage

• Next hackfest
  - ideally, pre-3.2
  - pre-GUADEC window is closing fast
  - travel arrangements an issue
  - no time frame, no venue
  - potentially postpone to pre-3.4
  - options: May/June (3.2) or September/October (3.4)
  ACTION: Company will look into both options

ciao,
 Emmanuele.
