+\subsection{Further discussion on GLEP 67}

+\end{itemize}
+
+Michał Górny reported on the progress regarding \glep{67}. He has cleaned 
+the spec to make it more informative and updated the reference implementation 
+section for the most common software in use.
+
+Nearly all herds have been merged into existing or new projects, or have been
+abandoned. 
+
+Automated generation of projects.xml is already active on Gentoo Infrastructure.
+
+A short discussion about the mapping between projects and subprojects has 
+happened. It has been agreed on not definitely specifying the mapping being 1:n
+or m:n in the GLEP right now. 
+The general consensus was that m:n mapping resembles the reality best and 
+missing support of that map style in tools like mediawiki is not sufficient 
+to nail the connectivity to 1:n.
+
+\vote{Approval of GLEP 67 with wording from \wgoref{User:MGorny/GLEP:67} as of 
+08:14, 10 January 2016}{Approved unanimously.}
+
+\vote{The final deadline for the herds -> project migration is
+to be the 24th January 2016. All remaining herds will be dropped after that and
+the remaining packages will be assigned to maintainer-needed.}{Approved 
+unanimously.}

+\subsection{Banning of EAPI 0 \& 3 for new ebuilds}
+\index{EAPI!0}\index{EAPI!3}\index{EAPI!1}
+
+References:
+\begin{itemize}
+ \item \agoref{gentoo-project}{bc0a1b7498c389bdbb0b0d52feb43391}
+ \item \agoref{gentoo-dev}{6904e810caedf66d889458e6fd1cc552}
+\end{itemize}
+
+The Council voted on banning EAPI 0 \& 3 for new ebuilds and EAPI updates
+in existing ebuilds. After some discussion an exception was made allowing
+the security team and only the security team to do minor patching using 
+those EAPI levels. The decision was made unanimously.
+
+Further the Council decided unanimously to amend the ban of EAPI
+1 \& 2 made in the Council meeting 2014-03-11. To this effect, the
+exception of updating EAPI=0 ebuilds to EAPI=1 is dropped.
+
+\subsection{Bugs with council involvement}
+\index{news item!format 1.1}
+
+\begin{itemize}
+\item 
+The Council briefly discussed \bug{503382} again: "Missing summaries for 
+20131210, 20140114, and 20140225 Council meetings". Ulm had written the
+final missing summary. The bug is fixed now.
+\item
+The Council briefly discussed \bug{569914} \& \bug{571490}: Missing meeting logs
+for 20151025 and 20140225. Dilfridge is working on them.
+\item
+The Council voted on the NEWS item format 1.1, \bug{568068}. Format 1.1 allows
+EAPI=5 style package dependency specification. Rich0 questioned the amount
+of discussion with the community, but the general consensus was that the
+public transparency for the size of the change has been enough. The Council 
+unanimously approved the new format.
+\end{itemize}
+
+\subsection{Open floor}
+
+A short information exchange about the presence of Gentoo Linux at the 2016 
+FOSDEM has happened but further discussion has been moved to \#gentoo-fosdem 
+\@ freenode.
