\agendaitem{``Impromptu'' council meetings}
\index{council!meeting!impromptu}

First, we voted if we should allow ``impromptu'' meetings, outside of the
monthly schedule. This passed with 6 yes votes. The consensus on the meetings 
is as follows:

\begin{quote}
We will allow meetings outside of the schedule on time sensitive issues.
The meeting needs more than 5 council members, and it should be done
with no less than 3 days notice, unless the council unanimously decides
to hold it sooner.
\end{quote}


\agendaitem{Devmanual and QA policies}
\index{devmanual}\index{project!qa}

Next were concerns brought about from the QA team.\footnote{Part of the 
discussion focussed on how the QA team can make sure its policies are being 
followed.} We decided (6 yes votes) that the QA team should work with other 
concerned parties to determine the requirements for moving the devmanual SVN to
Gentoo infrastructure, since it is considered an official Gentoo product, 
before any further decision on it can be made. It was also decided that the QA 
team should work on their own policies, with input from other teams, for 
approval by the council. The council volunteered to assist in coordination, if 
necessary.


\agendaitem{Meeting schedule}

Next, we decided to push the monthly meetings to 20:00 UTC on the second
Thursday of the month to better suit the new council's availability.


\agendaitem{Open floor}
\index{conflicts of interest}\index{project!devrel}

During the open floor, we decided that there was no need to mention conflicts 
for most council members, as we should all be adults and capable of making 
unbiased decisions.  The exception to this (being adults... just kidding...) 
was \dev{kloeri} in response to escalations from devrel, as he is the lead 
there.\footnote{Someone's poking fun here. \dev{kloeri} merely mentioned that 
devrel disciplinary actions are more critical than someone voting for his own 
GLEP.} This also lead to the roll-call being updated to show everyone's current 
roles, so transparency is maintained.

After some minor discussion about USians not knowing their own country
code (*grin*) we adjourned.
