• [15:02] <@[Chair]Drew> Content - Docs we have a new tag to include courtesy of Stefan (OUTPUTSHEET miscinfo gamemode tag)
• [15:03] <@[Chair]Drew> Data - B3 is getting Kits by Mynex, I'm cleaning up a few loose ends in the set, but it's almost ready for release. A couple of books are up for Beta Review.

• [15:04] <@[Chair]Drew> OS - Vincent has fixed a few outstanding issues, otherwise not much moving over there.

• [15:08] <[Arch_SB]thpr> no ? here either
• [15:09] <@[Chair]Drew> Okay James, you're up.
• [15:09] <James[Code_SB]> Code stats since last meeting:

• [15:09] <James[Code_SB]> Bugs: 19 created and 15 resolved and
• [15:09] <James[Code_SB]> New Tags: 3 created and 3 resolved
• [15:09] <James[Code_SB]> Kim Winz has joined the code team with his first patch - welcome Kim!
• [15:09] <James[Code_SB]> I've finally moved all choosers to the new structure, and have moved on to designing the new equipment customizer, which will be structured much like one of the tabs.
• [15:09] <[Arch_SB]thpr> cool, the choosers are done :)
• [15:10] <James[Code_SB]> I've also been helping Billy Brown get started - he has an interest in the customizer also, so I'll be involving him in the rewrite.
• [15:10] <James[Code_SB]> @Tom yes its a great to finally have that one done
• [15:10] <James[Code_SB]> My focus for now will be primarily on my list for 6.2 now, plus helping new code monkeys come up to speed with the system, rather than other people's requests.
• [15:11] *** Jami has joined #pcgen
• [15:11] <James[Code_SB]> Oh and I'll be raising and implementing a new tag for kits to set an exact purchase price - this is needed for the UE and Pathfinder Society Field Guide sets
• [15:11] <James[Code_SB]> Any questions?
• [15:11] <@[Chair]Drew> What is on your 6.2 list?
• [15:11] <James[Code_SB]> Things to be done before 6.2 are complete the removal of old UI code, put in converter from PREAPPLY to TEMPBONUS
• [15:12] <[Arch_SB]thpr> I didn't put in a converter?
• [15:12] <James[Code_SB]> Those are the essentials, but we'll se what else can be done
• [15:12] <James[Code_SB]> Nope
• [15:12] <[Arch_SB]thpr> oops :/
• [15:12] <James[Code_SB]> Not that I could see
• [15:13] <[Arch_SB]thpr> let's take that offline, I'll go look at what I did do
• [15:13] <James[Code_SB]> Cool
• [15:13] <James[Code_SB]> Oh and I have to remove the deprecated tags that Eric identified
• [15:13] <@[Chair]Drew> So, what's the timeframe before we go beta cycle then?
• [15:14] <James[Code_SB]> Not fixed at this stage - lets get those sorted and then talk dates
• [15:14] <@[Chair]Drew> ok
• [15:15] <James[Code_SB]> but as discussed last meeting we are rapidly approaching a year since 6.0 and I'd like to be around the annual release mark at least
• [15:15] <@[Chair]Drew> Sounds good.
• [15:15] <@[Chair]Drew> I think that covered Roadmap
• [15:16] <@[Chair]Drew> Any open business before we wrap up?
• [15:17] <James[Code_SB]> What's the procedure for submitting UE for review - do we just change the status, or email Andrew?
• [15:17] <@[Chair]Drew> You move it to License Review
• [15:17] <James[Code_SB]> Cool
• [15:17] <@[Chair]Drew> Paul will review it, and then he pushes it to Data and I review it
• [15:19] <@[Chair]Drew> Anyone else?
• [15:20] <@[Chair]Drew> Okay, my son is letting me know my time is up :P *Bangs gavel* Thanks for coming everyone.
