I think we should also plan to discuss the branching strategy for  
mozilla-central at this meeting; shouldn't take very long, just want  
to finalize plans for:

  - checkin rules for mozilla-central once it re-opens after tagging  
for beta 2
  - dates for merging mozilla-central over to mozilla-1.9.1
  - actual branching date where we switch over to mozilla-1.9.1

For consideration, there's a logjam of patches for blocking bugs  
waiting to go in after beta 2; David Baron and others have suggested  
that we continue to use mozilla-central until EOD Thursday, at which  
point we'd remerge mozilla-central to mozilla-1.9.1 and make the  
switch. This would prevent the need for a large set of double landings  
for those blockers. The proposal I'd like to work with is:

  - after tagging for beta 2, mozilla-central will be open only to  
blocking-firefox3.1, blocking1.9.1, and approval1.9.1
  - merge to mozilla-1.9.1 repo EOD Thursday
  - after merge, the mozilla-1.9.1 repo will be open only to blocking-
firefox3.1, blocking1.9.1, and approval1.9.1; mozilla-central will be  
back to usual tree rules of requiring review only

Concerns:

  - how can we make sure to watch performance on mozilla-central post-
merge
  - is tue-thu enough time for the logjam to get through

cheers,
mike
