Pandora shipments are inevitable, barring accidents, and hopefully
people begin receiving them by the end of February. We will receive a
small surge of interest as some Pandora owners look around at the
available software. A few of those customers have stated they want to
put Gentoo on it first thing. Therefore, it would be a good idea to
have ourselves set up by the end of February.

To some involved in the project, who do not own a Pandora, this does
not directly affect them. However, our performance here may indirectly
affect everyone involved, since our performance here decides whether
or not we /keep/ the interest we initially receive.

My suggestion, if not already obvious, is to push for a stable release
by the last week of February or thereabouts.

Of course, I'm not actively involved due to school workloads, so I'm
more or less a backseat driver. I leave it to you guys to decide
whether or not this doable.

Are you ready?

I think this should be a deadline. The good thing is that we have
experience building images and our framework appears to be pretty
solid. To do this however, we need to start deciding on what software
and processes to us that will make this deadline and push what we
can't get working in time to possibly a later 0.3.x release or 0.4.x

I'm hitting our build process hard today, I could use some interaction
(when available) from the devs and/or anyone interesting in software
to bundle and what facets of this process that they would like to
lead.

Charging forward,
Jake

I will do my absolute best to be free on Monday, which is a holiday. I
know you need metro, but if there's anything else you'd like me to
work on that day, make a list so I can hit the ground running.

Looks like bearsh and I will be around starting ~noon. Our focus will
be to come up with a good package list for the 0.3.0 build in order to
have something to throw at metro once we can get together.
