Due to coming changes in zend-mvc 4, it may be worth delaying merging these changes until more is known about how configuration loading will be impacted.

 +The WebEx account stopped working today; Demian will set up a Zoom account for next time.
 +
 +Eoin is reviewing some of VuFind's query processing code -- particularly the interaction between Lucene query normalization and the query munging process. Currently, some query normalization occurs BEFORE the munging, which can lead to unexpected behavior when dealing with certain characters (like slashes and dashes). Demian provided some background on how this code was refactored in the past and advice on how to test it. A pull request may be forthcoming once more investigation has been completed.
 +
 +Conor asked about the best way to run VuFind's test suite (as provided by build.xml); in particular, how to run tests without destroying local configuration and other files. Demian suggested simply cloning the VuFind repository in two places -- one copy for long-term work where the test suite is not run, and another "disposable" copy for short-term running of the test suite. That is how he manages development at Villanova. Conor agreed to try this approach.
