Summary

- Player upgrade to 3.0.0 imminent (updated by rmattes, will be pushed by timn)
- rmattes will propose gearbox and Stage 3.2 for Fedora inclusion, needs sponsor
- timn will push Fawkes once 0.4 is out
- tcollet helps getting Player patches included upstream
- focus on getting a Player/Stage/Fawkes simulation environment on a LiveCD, likely based on F-12 during the rest of the year.
- try to get interactive demos to get the user involved with the simulation environment easily. Can be based on Fawkes' Lua-based behavior engine.
- ultimate goal: attract more people with the LiveCD and provide a common ground for future advancements.
