3. Data gathered so far by the new PHP-version-collecting Mahara stats (anitsirk, 08:11:02)
   1. Following up on a point from an earlier dev meeting, in the last round of minor releases we expanded the data gathered by the Mahara stats cron, so that it includes some environmental data (aarowlaptop, 08:11:49)
   2. It's been about a week since that was released, and so far we've got data from 20 sites that have responded with the new expanded info. (aarowlaptop, 08:12:15)
   3. I've collated the data into a Google spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1MTQmnDczefBzRzGWIYtWotEeIJTavEMegNkeHqGhgvE/edit?usp=sharing (aarowlaptop, 08:12:27)

4. Release progress (anitsirk, 08:23:04)
   1. We are finally closing off features this week. We had extended the time frame in which to accept new features because a number of them were already on the way and close to getting finished so that we wanted them to get over the line. (anitsirk, 08:23:04)
   2. The Catalyst front-end team is making good progress with Bootstrap and finalizing the last major screens before the focus will be on working on some of the details. (anitsirk, 08:23:14)
   3. The first themes are being worked on by our designers. We are aiming to have 4 themes (besides raw, the untheme) for this release: Default, one for primary schools, a light and a dark one. (anitsirk, 08:23:22)
   4. There is still a good chunk of reviewing and bug fixing to be done. If you can help, please lend us a hand and feel free to review patches that are in review. (anitsirk, 08:23:32)
