Talked with @coffee2code about Profiles today.

  • He’s going to deploy (and test, and fix any bugs) the profile/buddypress stuff that Mert did during GSoC. At this time only the back-end stuff is going to be deployed, no UI changes.
  • Scott is going to install/turn on the plugin(s) to pull Make posts and comments, trac comments, etc into the activity stream to make it more inclusive.
  • I’ll work with @melchoyce on new UI for profiles based on my conversation with Scott.
  • After the back end stuff is running smoothly, will work on launching UI improvement.

Later follow-up work/projects:

  • Bring activity from events (wordcamps, meetups, etc) into the stream.
  • Create one .org profile instead of 2 (bring in the support stuff).
  • Related: upgrade forums to current bbPress plugin (big standalone project, big implications, but will tie in)
