+\index{INSTALL\_MASK}\index{USE\_EXPAND}\index{LINGUAS}\index{L10N}
+\index{package!sys-devel/gcc}\index{use flag!multislot}
+
+Reference: \agoref{gentoo-dev}{68a870c0519fb1cb7152db38fc9d4935}
+
+Michał Gorny proposed several unrelated items in a lengthy e-mail:
+\begin{enumerate}
+ \item a "file installation mask" GLEP,
+ \item for portage to actually adhere to USE\_EXPAND semantics,
+ \item\label{mgms} to abolish the sys-devel/gcc multislot use flag entirely,
+ \item\label{mgln} the migration from LINGUAS USE\_EXPAND to L10N
+ \item discussion of the gui use flag.
+\end{enumerate}
+He later withdrew all these proposals. Items \ref{mgms} and \ref{mgln} were
+discussed anyway.
+
+Regarding \ref{mgms}, \bug{584610}, blueness as toolchain member explained that
+now the new implementation of the multislot use flag in sys-devel/gcc
+controls a blocker. If unset, previous gcc versions are blocked and
+consequently unmerged on update (leading to potential ABI breakage in
+C++). If set, minor version bumps accumulate on update.
+
+This led to a discussion why 1) the blocker exists, why 2) the slot
+was refined from major version bumps (4.8, 4.9) to point releases
+(4.8.1, 4.8.2, ...), and why this behaviour was not reserved to an
+overlay for toolchain specialists. For none of these questions valid
+technical arguments were known.
+
+After discussion blueness proposed to e-mail vapier, request
+clarifications on the changes and ask him if he wants to force
+USE=multislot universally, since this seems to be the easier choice.
+
+Regarding \ref{mgln}, see
+\begin{itemize}
+ \item \agoref{gentoo-dev}{a08ea09c2c8e534fd9bc1146703c66ff}
+ \item \agoref{gentoo-dev}{41e09d1ddc8b30abb9f9d21d205b7b82}
+\end{itemize}
+
+ulm explained that LINGUAS should become a normal environment variable
+(since it has a special meaning to gettext) and the current USE\_EXPAND
+functionality should be transferred to a new variable L10N. No council
+decision is required; the new variable will be introduced in a news
+item.
+
+\agendaitem{Bugs with council involvement}
+
+Dilfridge was reminded to complete the missing summaries; blueness
+announced that he just finished two summaries.
+
+No action was taken regarding games.eclass and the games team.
+
+\bug{565566} was mentioned but no action was taken.
+
+
+\agendaitem{Subsequent non-public meeting}
+
+A non-public discussion of bug 592598 followed.

+\agendaitem{Dropping of IA-64/SPARC Stable support}
+\index{arch!ia64}\index{arch!sparc}\index{stabilization!stable arches}
+\index{security!supported arches}
+
+The general discussion was around the distinction between security
+support and stable support, and the general sense was that stable
+support should probably be tabled and addressed by the stable working
+group. It was believed that addressing security support for these archs
+would address the original concern.
+
+\vote{The council defers to the security team, but is supportive of dropping

+
+\vote{
+The council would like the community to consider mailing list
+discipline when posting to the various MLs of the Gentoo community. This
+includes, but is not limited to, thread discipline and a consideration
+of whether a new post adds value to the discussion at hand when posting
+in order to ensure a good signal to noise ratio. Messages should be inline
+quotation and cropped to the relevant quotation needed for context in order to
+improve readability}{yes: blueness, dilfridge, jlec, k\_f, rich0, ulm; abstain:
+williamh}
+
+It was noted that sometimes top-posting can be appropriate, and these
+aren't completely hard rules.
+
+\agendaitem{Open floor}
+\index{trustees}\index{metastructure!reorganization}
+\index{umbrella organization}\index{SPI}
+
+prometheanfire brought up whether it would be beneficial to have
+Council/Trustee members attend each other's meetings to provide more
+immediate feedback on questions. The sense was that this could be
+useful, but probably should be based on specific agenda topics/etc and
+requested in advance vs being a general practice.
+
+prometheanfire brought up his proposal for having a single governing
+board at
+\href{
+https://docs.google.com/document/d/10xzPUREMzZllT7dLs85JjMvlymEY9wWzYPRCnTZIsfI/
+edit?usp=sharing}{the linked Google docs document}.
+He is looking for comments from both Council and Trustees. It was
+suggested that this be taken to the lists, but there was general
+interest in participation.
+
+rich0 mentioned that he would be working on a comrel glep, but he'll
+take the details to the lists/etc as time was running long. Anybody who
+is interested can participate, and prometheanfire and neddyseagoon both
+registered interest.
+
+dilgridge brought up Software in the Public Interest and asked the
+Trustees to take another look at them. It was suggested that this might
+be worked into the single board proposal in some way since it is a
+metastructure change.
