Should it be 2 years since portage 2.1.4.4 went stable?

year policy

30+ minimum lastrite period for eclass removals

\agendaitem{Use of invalid DEPEND atom "EAPI_TOO_OLD" instead of calling die in 
global scope on eclasses}
\index{EAPI_TOO_OLD}\index{die!in global scope}\index{PMS}

Reference: \agoref{gentoo-dev}{dee3aab5e8c840ed3fa4add9c7d74b97} and 
replies

The council opted for calling die 
instead of using the invalid DEPEND and required
a patch to devmanual and PMS (ferring will do the devmanual patch)


\agendaitem{Mailing lists}
\index{mailing list!gentoo-council}
\index{mailing list!gentoo-dev}
\index{mailing list!gentoo-project}
\index{council!meeting!agenda}

Should we post council agenda to -council? -dev? -project?

Some devs suggest we should cross-post to -dev and -council
but not everyone likes cross-posting as it can lead to fragmentation.
Petteri suggested punting -council and using -project instead

$\longrightarrow$ there was a vote on punting -council 
that ended in a 2-2 tie (ferringb had left)
jmbsvicetto and wired voted against, betelgeuse and scarabeus voted in favor


$\longrightarrow$ discussion will be continued in the 
mailing lists
