Last Drupal 8 Multilingual Initiative meeting before feature freeze! (on November 30th, 2012)
We are a mere hours before feature freeze as this meeting is being held. I know people in the Drupal 8 Multilingual Initiative have been working really hard to meet this deadline and almost all of our patches are up in a row for commit with final help text refinements. So for that great work I'd love to send a wink and a high-five to all who cannot attend the meeting.

We are right at a week and a half from the feature freeze deadline as this meeting is being held. For this very limited time, we are naturally only focusing on a very limited set of issues, but probably still too much to sanely go through, so we need all hands to help and get through the final stretch!

We are right at two weeks from the feature freeze deadline as this meeting is being held. I can only illustrate that point with this little picture on the right.

We are in the final stretch nearing feature freeze for Drupal 8 coming on December 1st. What does that mean? Well, although not everybody agrees on the specifics, generally it means new things will not be possible to get in, but smoothening out what is already included and applying existing APIs and features to systems not yet covered should be the focus then. At the multilingual intiaitive, we'd love to do extensive user testing of all the new and changed things as well as make our APIs more consistent and better documented after December 1st.
However, for three weeks, the wild ride of feature additions is still on and we still have some key features to add before the time runs out. So I'd like to call your attention to just these few issues that need immediate help and feedback.

Once again, our regular bi-weekly Wednesday meeting time is here! (See all the meeting times at http://groups.drupal.org/node/257888).
First off, we are going to celebrate some great stuff from BADCamp, but then get back down to work and look at the current top priority task board and cherry-pick everybody's favorites. All of those are in dire need of reviews and input, so if you can spare some time to look at those, that would be superb! We need your help to get through the finish line!
At the time of this meeting, we'll only have 23 days left (barely more than 3 weeks!!) until code freeze! Keep moving!

Once again, our regular bi-weekly Wednesday meeting time is here! (See all the meeting times at http://groups.drupal.org/node/257888).
There are some very exciting issues on our current top priority task board, including a translation workflow for all configuration installations (and possibly updates), a nicely working entity translation user interface and other important things for both content and configuration translation. All of those are in dire need of reviews and input, so if you can spare some time to look at those, that would be superb!
