[yt-dev] Next iteration of rockstar development

[Hilary Egan]

Given that a lot of this work has been going on behind the scenes, maybe a
hangout sometime next week would be a good idea? We could discuss the
general plan, current status, what still needs to be done, etc. and get
everyone who is interested on the same page.
