1st hour quick news

Tiki 15 release status
Probably will try and remove the dependency on php-intl (as emailed)
- My opinion: The intl extension can be a blocker for Tiki upgrades. In my case, with shared hosting, it was possible but required an account upgrade (another account was luckily on a newer server so already had the intl extension). (I may not make it to the roundtable so wanted to add my opinion here.
- Fix committed in 15.x in r58399 please test and we can discuss if it changes plans for the 15.0 release
New goodies planned for Tiki 16
- Min spec:
  - PHP-- 7+?-- too radical min spec php 5.6
  - Update Smarty (was stuck slightly out of date for 15.x)
- H5P
- Plugin editor revamp
- Removal of other jquery-ui dependencies
- Stuff that missed the boat from here for Tiki 15
- Bootstrap 4 is at alpha.2 so may not be in time for Tiki 16, but is something to keep on the radar.
  - Sass replaces Less; some class name changes that will need updating in templates, etc. http://v4-alpha.getbootstrap.com/migration/
- Anything else planned?
Meeting timings again?
- Could we and should we try and find alternative times for these meetings occasionally so they're not always in the middle of the night in Asia and during working hours in the Americas?
