6. Open bugs with council involvement
=====================================
The bugs covered by other agenda items were omitted from this point.
a. #542498 "Retire: NP Hardass (np-hardass)"
Gentoo developer "NP-Hardass" appealed to council to stop the retirement
process initiated by undertaker project against him.
Motion: Undertaker should stop retirement of NP-Hardass [Bug 542498] as
long as NP-Hardass shows *any* activity like former staffer or
dev in Gentoo. Yes/No
7 yes, 0 no, 0 abstained -- motion passed unanimously
Notes:
During discussion it became clear that Gentoo project doesn't have any
official policy how to deal with inactive developers which forces
projects like recruiters and undertaker to find their own workflow which
isn't legitimated by the community and can lead to problems like shown
in NP-Hardass' case.
The council will ask projects and community to come up with proposals
to fix this.
Closing statement: All council members agree that we don't want to blame
projects like undertaker for the lack of any official, by community
legitimated policy on this sensitive topic, but we still want to express
our concerns that it was even necessary for NP-Hardass to reach out to
council. We really hope that the community will close that gap.
b. #684170 "Copyright policy: should we require working (delivering)
e-mail addresses?"
All council members agreed that it is common sense that GLEP 76 will
require a valid email address. However, we are not going to implement
or require verification.
c. #676248 "non-free licenses are accepted without user prompt"
During the meeting council agreed to flip ACCEPT_LICENSE in
week 20/2019.
d. #679250 "GLEP 79: Gentoo OpenPGP Authority Keys"
Motion: Mark GLEP 79 final. Yes/No
7 yes, 0 no, 0 abstained -- motion passed unanimously
7. Open floor
=============
a. During meeting, dilfridge banned veremitz from #gentoo-council channel.
Right after the ban (21:39), ulm already noticed that dilfridge violated
a council agreement from a previous meeting [Link 4] that only the chair
should ban.
WilliamH expressed concern about the violation but accepted
dilfridge's honest apology.
b. gokturk expressed concern about undertaker project's policy change he
mentioned during discussion of 6a.
