Agenda
Call To Order:
 * 1) Select meeting moderator

OLD BUSINESS:
 * 1) What are the results of the various SoC projects?  Is there any way to see the results? (withak)

NEW BUSINESS:
 * 1) Will all the new code from 1.4 be backported to 1.3.6? (Bull)
 * 2) When is the beta release planned?  (Bull)
 * 3) What is the policy on adopting open JIRA issues? (step)
 * 4) How much refactoring and new work should be targeted for 1.4? What are the priorities for this release? The download infrastructure is in desparate need of an overhaul (see [confluence]), should we try to get this in 1.4? (step)
 * 5) Lots of stuff is not documented (not only source code but also features like HigherResolutionSubsets). Its great extensibility is one of the unique selling points of WW, but it must be well documented to be useful and accepted. This may be more important than adding new features. (step)
