Proposed agenda

  1. Igno's Retrospective

  3. Action point follow ups from previous meetings
  4. PoW general item
  5. T4 Hard fork
  6. Mainnet planning
  7. Windows support
    • WSL vs Rustup for windows vs C++
    • Get wallet working first perhaps?
  8. Pull Request review process before merging
  9. Other questions

I wrote in the Gitter that I didn't have anything to add to the agenda, but I lied! Added point 8 here above. Basically, with only a few weeks ahead of Mainnet, I would like to propose that we start to adopt a more formalized review process of PRs that get merged. Don't know what that should be exactly, but I think some kind of definition of what it takes for a PR to get merged would be helpful, no matter how basic that would be.

Regarding the review process, we agreed on the following at least for the time being:

1.Trivial PRs can be directly merged
2. Non trivial PRs need at least one review
3. Identified consensus-touching PRs need 2 reviews
4. Igno stops committing straight in the repo, even once in a while

There was some concern on the first point but developers all felt it was still too early to force reviews even on trivial issues. Note that the absence of a formal on a trivial PR doesn't stop anyone from checking whether it was actually trivial.
