Action Items
- Paul sent message to AI team about dist.plone.org
Incoming Correspondence
- Paul responded to a sponsorship request to Euro Python, we will have a booth and a help desk set up there.
- Re-licensing Request - collective.indexing was split up for some bits of the code to be in CMFPlone and the rest in our fork of CMFCore. The bit under CMFCore needs to be relicensed to match Zope's licensing requirements (ZPL). Paul recommends a dual license, in case the code needs to be merged back into CMFPlone in the future. Carol made a motion to make the code in the pull request under a dual license. Chrissy seconded. Unanimously approved.
New Business
- Victor provided a report on the Barcelona sprint. The result of the sprint opens a lot of new possibilities in the Plone world. rest.api is in good shape; they made another release yesterday, beta is coming soon, it is Plone 4 compatible. A lot of front-end work was done for Angular 2. Also work was done on Plone Server. The sprint participants are happy with the outcome and are looking forward to the future. Worked to becoming Python 3 compliant Targeted to Plone 7
