Agenda
* Opens collection - 5 min (Song)
* 1.1.1 release, thanks to Josh, Matthew, Beth and the whole team for getting this incredibly large point release out of the door. 
  - Josh planning for 1.1.2, have some patches in the branch already
  - Action item: Retrospective for 1.1.1 (second week of April should work with Josh)
* Yocto 1.2 M4 status - 20 min (Song/Team) https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Yocto_Project_v1.2_Status 
 
   Bug fixing: fixed about 41 bugs, down to 131, to the level when we started 1.2, about average of the 1.2.
   High bugs:
      - 2066 glxgear still there: fixed qemu problem, working on BSP.
      - HOB2, either fixed or patch submitted. 1 doc HOB2 bugs. 2102 will take some time. Start on that today. 2157, video will be done after release. Replace with new screen shots.
      - Jessica: No need for eclipse video.
   Features:
      - About 20 or so features left (please check the task board). The team has reviewed them, it seems fine not to have them in this release. If anyone sees a bigger impact of any of those features, please let Song know.
      - RP: merged pretty much everything we want to merge, stabilizing RC1 build. We are not taking patches from community now. Did not communicate with community about the dates very well.  Build is failing now, RP knows the issues and Paul and RP will fix those.
 
* SWAT team rotation: Jessica->Paul. Thanks to Paul for volunteering for this week. (Dexuan is pretty busy)

* Opens - 10 min
  - Michael: Schedule downtime moving autobuilder master to new hardware. 
New hw is place, passed all burning test. Later this week would like to schedule 12 hours downtime for the move. Beth says no, let's do it sometime in April. Probably 3 weeks from now. The upgrade is purely hardware, no software including OS changes.
  - Mark: Pseudo problem, talking to peter. He has the problems fixed locally. Still verifying. Once he's done. Mark will construct something  (recipes, etc). Should be sometime today. Purely a pseudo change. Mark will create a bug for this one to track the progress.
 
* Team Sharing - 20 min
Beth: fixing licenses, now have ability doing it at package level. Some autobuilder changes. None related to features on 1.2 list. Got 1.1.1 out. Releasing work this week.
Scott: reacting to issues coming over discussion list. X32 stuff in, a bunch of cleanup stuff. Notes about the manual. This week is to nail the 2 bugs on HOB.
Mark: office in new location :)
Jessica: last week, BSP/kernel tools integration, fixed some eclipse problems. This week to focus on Yocto plug-in. 
Tom: preparing for BSP summit, updated doc for BSP tools, trying to get some bug fixes. BSP tools in master now. Next week in BSP summit.
Joshua: trying to help on HOB fixing, this week same, 1.1.2 branch.
Michael: received new servers, hard disks, servers installed. Went over new release script with Beth. 1 week on Drupal conference. Worked with Darren, got bugzilla plugin installed. Next week, virtualize web services, work on new look of the website.

Darren: last week doing internal BSP work, working on various boot image issues, couple of bugs, preparing BSP summit, working with Tom and Bruce on the content. This week, refactoring Linux kernel metadata. Very confined changes. Recipes will be refined. RP: we need to look at it. If it can be done quickly, it's possible to include it for the release.
