3. Sponsors
We need funds to pay flights and hotel for a few independent contributors.
Recent sprints sponsoring budgets were around $10,000.
Sponsoring Companies:
Please offer your sponsoring
Sponsor point of contact: E-mail mercurial-steering AT mercurial-scm.org
4. Meals
Having food delivered for lunch is usually preferred as it helps us get back to work quicker. We usually go out for dinner to help people cool off after a day of work.
5. Possible Topics
Important things we want to discuss: (add your own)
5.1. Windows Testing
AugieFackler had problems during our last set of security patches validating things on Windows. He'd like to work with someone to document the steps required to go from an empty Windows VM to a working testsuite for development purposes.
5.2. narrowhg
Recently several people have started kicking the tires on narrowhg. I think we've got a subset of narrowhg that could be fused with the recently-imported sparse code and landed in core. I'd like to discuss this further.
5.3. Mononoke
Facebook is working on a distributed Mercurial server in Rust. sid0 can do a status update: where we're going, what it's meant for, and what can be useful to the broader Mercurial community.
5.4. Rust
Seriously consider using Rust for new native code.
5.5. Review Tooling
Phabricator. It's probably nice for contributors and usable thanks to the new dashboard. But still the email interface seems plain useless for me (yuja) and it's painful to quickly scan what's going on.
5.6. Topic 1

sub topic 1.b
