    Pending Action Items

       +AGREED: This week we will start process
       +ACTION: Joel will be responsible for mass bug changes this round, he will do test with ~20 bugs to make sure system works, then move forward with the rest of them
           -Will email developer list to let developers know the data/time that change will occur
           -AGREED: Temporary whiteboard status to monitor bugs that are mass commented on

    PENDING ITEM: Funding Wishlist

       +Need update from Bjoern about status of netbooks
           -If netbooks are approved: ACTION: Joel will write up proposal for how we go about determining if someone is eligible to get one

    PENDING ITEM: Wiki Pages

       +Joren has merged and cleaned QA-Team page
           - QA/QA Team
    

    New Action Items

    NEW ITEM: FDO

       +Prioritized Bugs
           -AGREE: Somehow being able to determine what bugs have been prioritized by QA is a good thing
           -A lot of discussion about using QA field or new whiteboard status – pros and cons discussed
           -Lead to discussion about what QA contact means, some disagreement and acknowledging pros/cons of different ideas
           -AGREED: Move conversation back to mailing list to try to find best solution, aim to have final vote next meeting.
           -ACTION: Joel will start thread back up from Rainer's previous thread.
    
       +Verified – WORKSFORME
           -AGREED: Makes a lot of sense to have this, original reporter can confirm that a bug indeed WFM by setting status to VERIFIED – WORKSFORME
           -AGREED: If QA member sets bug to WFM they should leave a comment explaining that if reporter can verify to change status, if they cannot, to reopen as UNCONFIRMED
    
       +Signature
           -Using signature could be good if it invites users to contribute to LibreOffice through multiple avenues such as QA, marketing, developing, and explains that run by a team of volunteers. Also a pointer to good bug reporting (reproducible steps, good prioritizing)
    


    NEW ITEM: Wiki

       +New wiki page to track QA projects
           - QA Projects
           -Everyone welcometo add projects, idea is that if someone leaves QA, their projects will continue for others to work on
    
       +Team Page
           - QA/QA Team
           -Everyone who wishes to be included in “QA Team” should add name to this list
