+Summary of Gentoo council meeting 24 September 2013
+
+Agenda
+======

+2. Drop support for separate /usr partition [1] - williamh
+3. Open bugs with council involvement
+
+

+Present:

+
+Drop support for separate /usr partition
+========================================
+Following the decision in the 20130813 meeting, williamh asked the
+council to agree that the preparations for early boot mechanisms are
+complete and that the necessary documentation is in place. In the
+following discussion it was noted that documentation for NFS mounted
+/usr was still missing (bug 481660). According to williamh, this
+should just work, without any need for separate documentation. Some
+council members expressed their concern that separate /usr support
+shouldn't be removed proactively. The overall opinion on this was that
+the base-system team should be trusted to do the right thing. It was
+agreed that a news item should be sent, followed by a reasonable
+transition time for users.
+
+Vote:
+- "The Council agrees that all preparations for dropping support for
+  separate /usr without an initramfs or similar boot mechanism are
+  complete. A news item will be prepared, and users will be given one
+  month to switch after the news item has been sent."
+  Accepted with 5 yes votes, 1 no vote, 1 abstention.
+
+Action:
+- Prepare the news item (williamh).
+
+Open bugs with council involvement
+==================================
+- Bug 481202 "Tracker - Documentation or implementation issues for
+  dropping of separate /usr support" [2]
+  No action, but leave the bug open as a tracker.
+
+- Bug 477030 "Missing summary for 20130611 council meeting" [3]
+  No progress since last meeting.
+
+- Bug 457000 "Missing log and summary for previous council
+  meetings" [4]
+  Action: Add log and summary for the 20080515 meeting (ulm).
+
+- Bug 480408 "Add /releases/${arch}/verified tree for tested
+  autobuilds" [5]
+  Already discussed in August meeting, council can be removed from CC.
+
+- Bug 485448 "Migrate council project page to the wiki" [6]
+  Migration to the wiki was welcomed by council members. It was noted
+  by dberkholz that the wiki in general could profit from a better
+  skin. Also the list of meeting logs should be folded by default, or
+  moved to a subpage.
+  Action: Complete the migration, redirect old project pages (ulm).
+
