\agendaitem{Max EAPI Count in Tree / Min Time Between EAPI}
\index{EAPI!count in tree}

See the log for full discussion, but the Council felt that since future
Councils already need to approve new EAPIs, they can decide at that time
whether doing so is appropriate.

scarabeus, ulm}

\vote{Should the council set a minimum time between EAPIs?}{

\agendaitem{Semi-official Dev-hosted Services}
\index{labs.gentoo.org}

The Council accepted this provided that the name assignments make it
clear what is and isn't official. *.dev.gentoo.org and *.labs.gentoo.org
were given as possible suggestions.

Aye: blueness, dberkholz, dilfridge, rich0, scarabeus, ulm;
Abstain: creffett (proxy for williamh)\\[0.2cm]
