Open floor + +Roll call +========= +Present: +blueness, dberkholz, dilfridge, rich0, scarabeus, ulm, williamh + +Open bugs/issues +================ +- GLEP 63 (GPG signing). + This is now a draft and has a number assigned [1]. However, a vote + hasn't been requested yet, and there are still some pending changes. + Therefore postponed to next meeting. + +EAPI deprecation +================ +The council voted to deprecate or ban EAPIs 0 to 3: +- Deprecate EAPI 3: Accepted unanimously. +- Deprecate EAPI 0: Accepted unanimously. +- Ban new EAPI 1 ebuilds: Accepted unanimously. +- Ban new EAPI 2 ebuilds: Accepted (5 yes, 1 no, 1 abstention). + +Stable keywords on testing architectures +======================================== +Some developers continued to mark ebuilds stable on archs dropped to +testing (namely, m68k, sh, and s390), leaving dependencies on these +archs in an inconsistent state. The council notes that this will not +be a problem if these archs are marked as "exp" in profiles.desc. +The respective arch team can use repoman -e, whereas other developers +can ignore stable keywords for these archs. In particular, dropping +the last stable version of an ebuild for an "exp" arch is allowed. + +- Vote: Minor archs with inconsistent stable keywording should be + marked "exp". + Accepted unanimously. + +gtk USE flags +============= +Following the recent announcement of the QA team on USE flag policy, +especially gtk flags, the council discussed whether QA has such +authority over tree policy. + +- Vote: QA's right to create standards in GLEP 48 includes flag + names and functionalities. + Accepted (5 yes, 2 abstentions). + +The council did not vote on the concrete issue of gtk flags. It was +suggested that the QA and GNOME teams should discuss any further +issues arising there. + +Open floor +========== +TomWij asked whether consistent category naming or bigger categories +should be preferred, which was briefly discussed. + + +[1] https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/GLEP:63 +[2] http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.gentoo.project/3303 +[3] http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.gentoo.devel/90291 +[4] http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.gentoo.project/3311 +[5] https://bugs.gentoo.org/498332#c5 +[6] https://bugs.gentoo.org/498332#c11 +[7] http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.gentoo.project/3321 +[8] https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/GLEP:48 +[9] http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.gentoo.project/3319 +[10] http://marc.info/?l=gentoo-dev&m=111212920310822&w=2 |
