1 Dear All,
2
3 As you know, the Gentoo Council had its third monthly meeting on
4 20051115 at 2000 UTC. On the agenda were GLEP #41 and a summary of
5 portage signing. In attendance were the following Council members:
6
7 az (Martin Schlemmer)
8 koon (Thierry Carrez)
9 seemant (Seemant Kulleen)
10 solar (Ned Ludd)
11 swift (Sven Vermeulen)
12 vapier (Mike Frysinger)
13
14 Absent from the meeting was agriffis (Aron Griffis).
15
16 The authors of GLEP #41 made the changes to the GLEP's wording as
17 requested by the council during October's meeting. Thus, it was brought
18 to vote. Before I relieve you of the suspense of the vote's outcome,
19 let me say that a policy decision also came about as a result of last
20 night's vote.
21
22 GLEP 41 was never resubmitted to this mailing list (gentoo-dev) after
23 the wording changed. Most of the council members were uncomfortable
24 with this idea. That was the first and *only* time the council will
25 vote that way again. Following this, every resubmission must be
26 discussed on -dev for 7 days minimum before being resubmitted to the
27 council 7 days before that meeting.
28
29 As such, GLEP 41 was voted in by majority (only one dissenting vote).
30 The subdomain for the arch tester email aliases has not been decided (it
31 is beyond the scope of the council's role in the GLEP).
32
33
34 The last agenda item was a summary of the progress of portage signing as
35 presented by Marius Mauch (genone). The story is dismal -- no progress
36 has really been made because nobody has taken ownership of implementing
37 it yet. Thus, the Council decided that its members would scratch the
38 beginnings of the GLEP together and forward that GLEP to the original
39 participants/proposers in the prior discussion (which was carried out
40 last year under the old metastructure management). From there the GLEP
41 will be presented to -dev for discussion before the Council takes
42 further action on it. The Council has agreed to forward their scratch
43 GLEP to the original proposers/partcipants before December's Council
44 meeting.
