devWeek programme : The main goal is to improve Head stability & define Koha 3.0 roadmap/timeline/features. As we will be more than 15, it's better do have short meetings with everybody and long sessions in small groups. We will have at least :

one very large room (30 places), with wifi only.
another room (15 places) with RJ45 access (8 ports).

both non-smoking rooms, but smoking area nearby if someone needs it. I'll take my coffee machine, we will get as many coffee as we want.

The small groups could work on (the list can be completed by any idea, it's a 1st draft) :

Technical
1. cataloguing : working on zebra & Biblio.pm
2. catalogue searching : working on zebra & Search.pm
3. authorities : move to zebra (require zebra working fine for catalogue. It will probably be done after devweek)
4. database cleaning (updatedatabase, removing useless tables like bibliosubject & bibliosubtitle…)
5. installer rewriting
6. getting rid of DateManip perl package
7. mod_perl
Functionnal
1. OPAC features (defining & coding)
2. members module improvement & fixes (SAN-OP developpers coming on 9th & 10th to speak/work on this topic)
3. GUI improvements (CSS for librarian interface, for OPAC)
4. acquisition module

Some of those topic could be done in 2 days (for example, the members module)

Each group could be managed by 1 developper, with 2 or 3 persons. we could do :

8th morning : installing & setup of all computers + organizing groups
8th evening : each group works on it's topic & write a small summary of what is to be done & how he will do it
9th morning & evening : each group works on it's topic. At the end of the day ⇒ 1 hour for each group to show everybody what has been done, and where there is a problem
10th : same thing
11th morning : same thing
11th evening : trip to SAN-Ouest Provence to visit the library + doing something interesting in the area
12th morning : each group work on it's topic, to end with something as stable as possible
12th morning (end of-) and evening : work all together, to define roadmap/timeline/WhoDoWhat…
