Setup Matters

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.

During the last meeting, I volunteered to look at how other open-source projects on GitHub use labels in their issues. You won't believe what happened next! Or maybe you will; it's straightforward web research, after all.
