[MacRuby-devel] converging for 1.0

[Matt Aimonetti]

I think the critical aspect of this event is to reduce and triage bugs.
Just confirming bugs and finding reductions would save hours of work fir the entire team. 

Something we could do is to split the tickets among the online people and go one by one, confirm the bug against trunk, see if it is as reduced as possible and submit a reduction otherwise. One doesn't have to fix bugs to join the fun :)
Some tickets will be marked as easy and people interested in learning the internals will be able to try hacking around.
