The next council meeting will be on Tuesday 3 April 2012 at 19:00 UTC
(note change of time) [1] in the #gentoo-council channel on Freenode.

Proposed agenda:

1. Introduction and roll call (5 minutes)

2. EAPI specification in ebuilds (30 minutes)

   See [2]. Discuss/vote which of the proposals [3] should be further
   pursued and worked out in detail:
     A: Parse bash assignment statement
     B: Comment in first line of header
     C: Bash function
     D: Filename extension (GLEP 55)
     E: External metadata file
     F: None, keep status quo

3. New udev and separate /usr partition (30 minutes)

   See [4]: "Decide on whether a separate /usr is still a supported
   configuration. If it is, newer udev can not be stabled and
   alternatives should be investigated. If it isn't, a lot of
   documentation will have to be updated. (And an alternative should
   likely still be provided.)"

4. herds.xml and mail aliases (10 minutes)

   See [5]. Discuss: Should devs be required to add themselves to
   herds.xml when adding to mail alias?

5. Open bugs with council involvement (10 minutes)

     - Bug 383467 "Council webpage lacks results for 2010 and 2011
       elections" [6]
     - Bug 408073 "Make the user choose a locale" [7]

6. Open floor

Regards,
Ulrich
