Shane: How does this "code sprint" thing work?
Jelte: 1st almost nothing but talk, set milestones & planning for rest
of week.
Shane: Maybe goal-oriented coding is not the way to go. Will set aside
time for coding, without specific per-session objectives. 

Michael: There will be the normal ISC sweng call next week.

Larissa: Are we getting together for dinner?
Shane: Would like to - at least one night of BIND 10 team, might also be
an ISC company dinner. [UPDATE: there won't be an ISC company dinner]

David: Major responsibilities for 4.2 nearing an end, so should be able
to join  BIND 10 soon.

[ UPDATE: David and Shawn are hopefully both going to be joining us for
BIND 10 sessions ]

Michael: Missing library from BIND 9: network layer of utility functions
Evan: don't need to port all of libisc
Shane: Boost has some of this
Jelte: Boost.asio it is called

Jelte: I hear "if" we are going to use boost?
Michael: We're using it

Jinmei: We should also think about which part of Boost we are using.
Especially if it requires binary library version it might be
controversial.
Shane: What do you mean?
Jinmei: Probably will used shared_ptr, probably not use Boost.Test
Jinmei: In some cases it is about headers, but in some cases it is with
compiled versions of libraries (this is the case with Boost.Test)

Michael: Either rely on system Boost, or check into code directly and
compile as part of application.
Jinmei: Don't have a strong opinion. If we take the first option it will
be better if we only rely on the header files.
Jelte: Does the documentation specify whether only header files or
binary library included?

Jelte: Unbound checked system libraries, and used later versions on the
system, or the included version if it was older.

Michael: Nice to something serving UDP packets by the end of the week.
Shane: Will add as a 4th goal for the meeting.
