Past Meetings
=============

//Menu: sort children descending

Not all meetings gets summarized on this page. For example, there are no meeting
summaries at all available for 2010. This only means that there were not enough
things that needed deciding/documenting during these meetings to warrant someone
spending time on the task of writing a summary.

Anyone interested in Lumiera development is also encouraged to read mailing list
archives and other documentation.

************************
Most of our monthly developer meetings are informal discussions currently.
At times, there is only one developer working at the code, and thus there
is not much need for coordination. Sometimes, in-depth technical discussions
and decisions take place, and we'll publish at least an IRC transcript in
those cases; typically we also create a RfC to summarise the decisions.

.informal meetings, no summaries
********
In 2010, the monthly meetings where rather informal gatherings,
without any relevant decisions beyond the organisation of conference activities.
During that time, usually the two remaining Lumiera core developers where alternatively
either prevented by real-life obligations, or otherwise just in ``deep coding mode''
