Setup Matters

Today's meeting is the last in summer 2017. (Well, summer in the northern hemisphere.) Pack up the grill and get out the sweaters and cider for the upcoming cool autumn nights of coding.

Today's meeting represented a huge mental shift: Instead of meeting Tuesdays, today's meeting took place on a Thursday. We haven't met on Thursdays since WiX Online Meeting #53 back in January 2015. Thursdays are also the traditional meeting day for Back In The Day(tm) when WiX meetings were physical things, at Rob's house or a random conference room on Microsoft's Redmond campus.

Welcome to August 2017 Patch Tuesday/WiX Online Meeting number 132! Today's meeting was just about triaging our open bugs, as we're still in the gearing-up phase for finishing WiX v4.0. But details on that are forthcoming so stay tuned.

Today's meeting was all about the triage, so was a short-attention-span-compatible 12 minutes.

Today's meeting would have originally been scheduled for last week but given that 4-July is the official low-explosive pyrotechnic holiday in the United States, we postponed for a week.

Today's meeting started in an empty room until I realized that I was in the wrong room and not just early. I'd barely gotten to the right room when we were off to the races for a quick 10-minute triage-heavy meeting.
