Every Tuesday at 21:30 GMT (5:30 pm EST, 2:30 pm Pacific) we have the Team Miro meetings in the miro chatroom (irc.freenode.net@#team.miro) which are open to whomever would like to join. It is a general discussion of volunteer activities and a place to kick around ideas and make them happen.
Last weeks discussion partly focused on the Miro testing community and how we can attract more volunteers to help test the development builds. We need to grow our base of regular testers so that we can increase coverage of operating systems, video drivers and system configurations. We also need people who can test regularly using non-English language settings.
One of the ideas from the meeting was to create this blog. The goal is to provide a weekly summary of the bug fixes, implemented features and known issues in the testing builds. We will also suggest areas for focused testing.
We are also currently working on other ways to improve the testing processes to make test execution and results reporting more user-friendly. I will write more about those later when they are more developed. Until then, here are the current testing builds and documents.
We work on this project because open media matters. Please join us here and in the chat room. We need your help and ideas to ensure that Miro is the choice of video creators and viewers.
