RC Release Dates
We decided to move the RC0 release date into the following week (not Saturday) to allow everyone a chance to check the staging bits before rolling to release.
ACTION: Bjorn will call Kevin (who was not on the call today) to discuss the Platform RC dates. He will use that to define Europa RC dates and then send those proposed dates out for consideration.
Reconsider Some Must Dos
We decided to change "must dos" 3, 5, 6 to "recommended" because some projects are not doing them and thus it seems silly to insist they are are "must".
There was a suggestion that the Europa-o-matic pack and sign all the jars. We decided not to do this because while it seems attractive for the Europa jars, it doesn't solve the problem for the projects' own update sites and it doesn't allow the projects to be sure that the exact Europa bits have been run through the project's tests.
Mik will talk to Nick about how hard signing jars is to incorporate for a project.
