Organization Discussion
- 5.4.0 release plan -> December? https://github.com/minetest/minetest/milestone/17
- -> Rough approximated date for release (after 6 months)
- Roadmap - everyone list 3 goals for development (ie: Improve UI), this can then be condensed into a roadmap of goals.
- Add trusted contributors as issue triagers. https://github.com/orgs/minetest/teams/engine/discussions/25
- Suggested users: Wuzzy, Calinou. Wuzzy was already offered core dev, but refused.
- They would help ensure issue quality (asking for information, editing, closing duplicated) and oragnise issues (labelling, prioritising)
- This doesn't prevent core developers from doing the above.
- celeron55 is willing to trial this, paramat is against this.
- -> Krock, rubenwardy: Demo run with a few chosen people. Rules will be written down during this phase to ensure everything's going well. Needs discussion with paramat.
PR discussion/reviews
- Decide on a "use_texture_alpha" solution: https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/10342

- When do we have time to release 0.4.17?
- Still unclear freeze and release dates. 1 MTE needs backporting first

Minetest developer meeting 2017-05-20 Last chance to merge/improve the remaining PR before feature freeze: Old business: * Additional hooks for inventory manipulations callbacks (#4035) * Krock was working on it (#5647), but had an issue with a mysterious crash bug. Progress? * Timed move (#1489) * Merge/close? * nerzhul: close for me * nore: Merge * Krock: Merge * Split block position in SQLite3 database (and use R*Tree) (#1845) * Rebased, performance tests to do soon(tm). * nerzhul: performance is a little bit slower, but it's ridiculous compared to mapblock deserialization part (no bench to show it atm, but i did it 2 years ago on my fork, and SQLite was improved since this date) * Add list_predict formspec element (#1988) * sofar worked on a rebase a while ago. Close or merge a modern version? * New screenshots for website (web#78) https://github.com/minetest/minetest.github.io/issues/78 * ShadowNinja: "good" screenshots are fairly subjective and it doesn't look like we're actually getting anywhere near a decision in the issue thread, therefore I propose assigning someone to choose and install new screenshots. * > Calinou will handle it New business: * First, release blockers: * https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/5767 Don't add damage flash while punch texture modifier is active #5767 * > Bugfix, punted to next meeting. * https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/5782 [CSM] Disable preview mod before release #5782 * CSM disabled by default anyways since it's experimental * > Fixed by #5554 * https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/5728 Block instadig after tool switch #5728 * > Fixed by #5785 * nerzhul: * https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/5732 (CSM nodedefs/itemdefs read) * maybe close https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/5654 * Single/Multiplayer tab merge https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/5627 (user UI experience) * > Merge with minor changes * Create world better experience: https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/5589 * Permit to enable/disable mods on CSM https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/5554 (very important) * ShadowNina: CSM is experimental, so I don't think any CSM issues should be blockers * nerzhul: here the problem if a user enable client side modding his experience will be affected by this preview mod, dedicated to modders) * > nerzhul will merge * https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/5589 (start world after creation) * LMDB backend (https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/4206) * nerzhul: Close?

Minetest developer meeting 2017-05-06 Old business: "Add configurable key bindings" (#1439) Rebased by nore, needs tweaks and merge. Additional hooks for inventory manipulations callbacks (#4035) Krock is working on it, progress? Timed move (#1489) Merge/close? nerzhul: close for me Use a settings object for the main settings (#1949) Rebased, should be merged soon. Split block position in SQLite3 database (and use R*Tree) (#1845) Rebased, performance tests to do soon(tm). nerzhul: performance is a little bit slower, but it's ridiculous compared to mapblock deserialization part (no bench to show it atm, but i did it 2 years ago on my fork, and SQLite was improved since this date) Add list_predict formspec element (#1988) sofar worked on a rebase a while ago. Close or merge a modern version? Use object property "stepheight" for player stepheight too. (#2056) Agreed to merge, but nobody yet assigned. Make players respect makes_footstep_sound in the object properties (#2852) Agreed to merge, nobody assigned. New business: Add support for multiple listen addresses (#2604) Big patch, but can't really be split up much more since everything's interdependent. Make the player collisionbox settable (#2738) Clean up numeric.h and split FaceFositionCache from it (#3256) Up-to-date and looks more-or-less ready to merge, just needs formal approval. <nerzhul>: https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/5361 Background color on textarea/field/pwdfield) https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/5355: vertical bar in text areas Possible close: https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/5281 and https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/5279 Documentation update: https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/4968 close or not close ?

Minetest developer meeting 2017-04-22 Old business: "getTime refactoring" (#1188) not yet merged (nore) "Delayed shutdown" merged by nerzhul. "Disable Android LevelDB" rebased by nore and merged by nerzhul. "Add configurable key bindings" (#1439) rebased by nore, needs tweaks and merge. Additional hooks for inventory manipulations callbacks (#4035) Needs rebase and cleanup, volunteers? Rename .txt to .md (#5451)? New business: (PRs obtained by sorting by age on GitHub) Schedule Minetest subgame meeting? Coverity: https://scan.coverity.com/projects/12441 Need to triage issues, many legitimate issues to fix. Timed move (#1489) Added formspec element 'KeyEventBox' for charbased input (#1737) Add ability to escape commands with a back-slash (#1768) <ShadowNinja> I may want to tweak this so that it doesn't strip the slash when you type "\foo" (or maybe not? It should at least work for the client-side dot-commands too) Split block position in SQLite3 database (and use R*Tree) (#1845) Use a settings object for the main settings (#1949) <ShadowNinja> I also unified Initialize and InitiallizeAsync, which was necessary to implement this. I think the unification is worth merging even without the settings object change. This conflicts with just about the entire ScriptAPI, so I don't want to rebase it too often :-) Add listpredict to the formspec (#1988) Add non-global mod namespaces (#2039)
