Brian Heim and Nathan Ho worked on sclang LPC tests
Nathan Ho also made (marginal) progress on UGen regression tests
Patrick Dupuis investigated openbuildservice.org and HID on Fedora
Topics:
Plan for merging LPC test suite: get it to run, see if it catches changes to sclang, quick review, merge
openbuildservice.org, while good, is not a useful service for the SC dev team since it creates a PPA/third party repository.

sclang verbosity proposal is not a requirement for 3.9, but it’s important
Brian and I share an opinion on the state of SC development right now: we’re overloaded with work, and the lists of issues and PRs often feel like a huge wall of noise. We’ve been cutting down on multitasking and trying to focus on what’s important, and have felt increasingly nonchalant about proposals for new features.
