== 2007 May MonthlyMeeting ==

Is to be held on Wednesday, 16th of May at 06:00 UTC

== Preliminary Agenda ==

* Google Summer of Code 2007; how are the projects/candidates going?
* discussing current proposals to use Xiph codecs outside Ogg and which one we should endorse[http://svn.mplayerhq.hu/nut/trunk/docs/draft-xiph-oggless-00.xml?revision=126&view=markup 1] [http://lists.xiph.org/pipermail/vorbis-dev/2006-July/018508.html 2]
** I, Ivo, have talked with Monty about this proposal from the mplayer people, and we decided it would be best to reach a consensus between the concerned parties (i.e. codec developers).
* libao
** '''BeN [F1233 121D3R]''' [http://lists.xiph.org/pipermail/vorbis-dev/2007-April/018760.html offer to mantain libao] and provide a [http://lists.xiph.org/pipermail/vorbis-dev/2007-April/018762.html libao win32 patch].
* theora
** What about releasing 1.0alpha8 with current svn of theora-old, while completing the transition to the new complete decoder (which now is [http://lists.xiph.org/pipermail/theora-dev/2007-April/003220.html slower in many cases])? Current svn of theora-old has a faster decoder and an improved encoder wrt 1.0alpha7.
* put an end to the bloody extension mess.  Check if we all agree with the [MIME Types and File Extensions] proposal.
* move of XSPF validator of Sebastian Pipping to Motherfish
* other project reports/updates
