tarballs vs git tags
====================

Postponed as walters was missing.


Flashback
=========

https://wiki.gnome.org/GnomeFlashback

prevailing opinion is to wait-and-see - unclear if this has enough
momentum to go anywhere; mate already filled this space.


GUADEC
======

Next meeting will be at GUADEC, Saturday lunch.

→ fredp to send a separate email as reminder.

fredp won't be there.
andre will be there only until Sunday.


bluez[4|5] / pulseaudio  + NetworkManager compatibility problem
===============================================================

jjardon talked to the pulseaudio devs, they plan a freeze by the end
of the month and a release mid August. They may be late but 3.10 is
scheduled for end of September, so it should work out.

 → jjardon will update the jhbuild moduleset to use pulseaudio master
 → jjardon will answer in the ddl thread (BlueZ 5 migration)

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=701078 tracks the required
changes to NetworkManager.

We keep an eye on this and will look again at the situation during
GUADEC.


Recruiting
==========

We should think about fresh blood for the team.
