After a lengthy discussion, the following proposal was put up for
vote:

\vote{The current QA team is dissolved (but not its subprojects). The 
Council announces on the gentoo-dev-announce mailing list that 
interested developers should send council@gentoo.org a mail in the 
next two weeks if they want to join the QA team. The Council takes on 
the role of the QA team lead for six weeks, with elections in the 
team afterwards. The Council accepts interested developers into the 
team with secret majority vote of the council members.}{This motion was passed 
with 4 yes and 3 abstentions.}

This makes the proposal to add Patrick Lauer to the QA team obsolete 
since he can now follow the process outlined above.

In addition, it was discussed whether \glep{48} should be amended 
such that the QA team elect its team lead, but the Council has to 
confirm that election. A decision on this was postponed to the next 
regular Council meeting; a draft of the GLEP 48 change should be
prepared and sent to the gentoo-project mailing list for discussion.
