Although most of our collaboration takes place on Github, IRC
(#emberjs on freenode.net), and our Discourse site
the Ember.js Core Team meets privately every
Friday at 2pm EST/11am PST through Google Hangout for a weekly
discussion of all things Ember.
If you have a topic you'd like to see covered, contact your favorite
core team member and let them know!
Attendees
@krisselden, @machty, @stefanpenner, @tomdale, @trek, @wagenet, @wycats
Topics
Build Tools
@wycats has been communicating with @jo_liss about using
broccoli as the basis for a build tools package.
Ember Data

Ember data is now less of an ORM and more of a pluggable framework for assembling your own data communication layer for Ember.js applications (with some nice defaults for people's whose APIs follow common patterns). However, the interface – especially on the "normal form" of return values – isn't well documented so people aren't able to easily jump in, try it, and offer feedback.
Resolutions:

• @trek will start working on docs.
• @tomdale, @wycats will publish an ember data update blog post.

Query Params
Some debate about the correct location for defining and handling query parameters
(controller vs route).
Resolutions:

• a smaller group will handle that discussion

Pods
During the face-to-face we floated the idea of organizing an application's files in a
"pod" structure.
Feedback has been positive, but we want to get more real world stories about the pros and cons of
this structure.
Resolutions:

• @trek will reach out to people said they've built in this style.
