+# Glasgow Maintainers Coordination Meeting
+
+Date: 2023-07-01
+
+Attendees:
+- @whitequark
+- @attie
+- @esden
+- @mwk
+
+Apologies:
+- @electronic_eel
+
+
+## Agenda
+
+### 1. Teach Glasgow to use YoWASP if installed
+
+Assignee: @attie
+
+- Use [`amaranth/_toolchain/yosys.py`](https://github.com/amaranth-lang/amaranth/blob/main/amaranth/_toolchain/yosys.py) as an example, and extend/port to Glasgow
+- @whitequark to guide as necessary
+
+
+### 2. Teach Glasgow to cache applets
+
+Assignee: nobody
+
+- Depends on `1`, @attie to investigate once complete
+- Required in part because YoWASP is slower
+- Use [`yowasp_runtime/__init__.py`](https://github.com/YoWASP/runtime/blob/develop/yowasp_runtime/__init__.py#L84-L103) as a template / reference
+- Cache key is as hash of `design + yosys_ver + nextpnr_ver + icepack_ver + ecppack_ver`
+
+
+### 3. Finish migrating off `amaranth.compat`
+
+Assignee: @mwk (? - waiting for ack/nak)
+
+#### `memory.floppy`
+
+Assignee: @mwk
+
+- WIP
+
+#### `interface.spi_controller`
+
+Assignee: @mwk
+
+- [PR #308](https://github.com/GlasgowEmbedded/glasgow/pull/308)
+- Merged
+
+
+### 4. Documentation
+
+Assignee: @attie & @whitequark
+
+- @attie in progress on "_Getting Started_" user documentation & troubleshooting guide
+- @whitequark to write a document outlining acceptable page, commit message & code style
+- Reference [`amaranth` Github workflow](https://github.com/amaranth-lang/amaranth/blob/main/.github/workflows/main.yaml#L56-L135)
+
+
+### 5. Support Python 3.11
+
+Assignee: @whitequark
+
+- `@asyncio.coroutine` is deprecated and removed from Python 3.11
+- [Issue #297](https://github.com/GlasgowEmbedded/glasgow/issues/297)
+
+
+### 6. Out of Tree Applets
+
+Assignee: nobody
+
+- No official support planned "_now_", but we need to start building out infrastructure
+- Split `glasgow-contrib` applets into their own package / repo, to test machinery
+
+
+### 7. Rewrite Applet API
+
+Assignee: nobody
+
+- Currently blocked on Amaranth, improvements expected in coming months... can start before
+- Much of Glasgow framework may move to Amaranth
+- Either revise `bitfield` to use variable annotations, or deprecate in favor of `amaranth.lib.data`
+- Aim for new CLI, and ensure support for GUI in the future
+- Drop `argparse`, and make applets declarative (ideally cache metadata for `--help` to improve startup)
+- @whitequark has further ideas, will expand in another meeting
+
+
+### 8. Replace `bitarray`
+
+Assignee: nobody
+
+- PR attempt at resolving this [#265](https://github.com/GlasgowEmbedded/glasgow/pull/265) (closed due to quality)
+- Large issue, do not attempt without discussing
+
+
+### 9. XC9500XL - Migrade from `.bit` to `.jed`
+
+Assignee: @whitequark
+
+- [PR #288](https://github.com/GlasgowEmbedded/glasgow/pull/288)
+
+
+### 10. Serial Numbers
+
+Assignee: @esden
+
+- Sticker format sample shown, content to be discussed and finalised later... largely 1b2's decision
+- @esden to share gist with details in `#glasgow`
