1 Hello, everyone.
2
3 I would like to remind you that the transition to GLEP67 maintenance
4 model will occur today. I will perform all the needed commits around
5 22-23 UTC. Please avoid changing metadata.xml files around that time.
6
7 The plan is to:
8
9 1. check the bug list, generated projects.xml, etc. for validity one
10 more time,
11
12 2. commit the updated metadata.dtd,
13
14 3. perform the four pass conversion, and push it with rebase or merge
15 (depending on whether I'd be able to rebase it quick enough),
16
17 4. run the conversion scripts again to ensure that nothing was added
18 in the meantime (I will probably be repeating this a few times in the
19 following week in case people copy ebuilds with old metadata.xml
20 files),
21
22 5. announce new maintainer-needed packages,
23
24 6. reassign bugs as appropriate.
25
26 Please note that since I suspect there will be a lot of bug work to be
27 done, it may get delayed to tomorrow.

29 Thanks for all the help, especially to kensington who handled most of
30 the hard work wrt existing herds.
