+GLEP 74 update
+==============
+
+mgorny had sent two batches of GLEP 74 updates. This vote was on the first batch.
+
+"""
+<@sam_> https://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-dev/message/6aa9602f4e86b875b3032281f0bbaf60 was the original but more got sent today: https://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-dev/message/db976e195ef0199178ed4c5ae71cb6d2
+<@sam_> okay, so the GLEP 74 changes we're talking about today (the first part, ignore the ones sent to the ML today) are at https://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-dev/message/db976e195ef0199178ed4c5ae71cb6d2
+"""
+
+Motion: Approve the GLEP 74 changes (essentially all editorial) at https://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-dev/message/6aa9602f4e86b875b3032281f0bbaf60.
+Result: 6 yes, 0 no, 1 abstention as not present. Vote passed.
+
+
+IANA media type for various Gentoo file formats
+===============================================
+
+The motion was from mgorny to approve pursuing an IANA media type for various Gentoo file formats.
+
+As some additional context: mgorny has recently implemented support for various Gentoo file
+formats into file(1). During this work, mgorny noticed Gentoo did not have MIME types registered
+for its formats, and discovered that IANA has made it easier to register "official media types".
+
+mgorny noted that Debian has media types registered as well. Flow noted there's no downside
+to this (besides the work needed for registration) and can help Gentoo's visibility.
+
+mgorny plans to start with manifests, receive feedback on it, and then explore
+registering other formats (like ebuilds, eclasses, metadata.xml, and gpkg).
+
+Council discussed who the "controller" and "contact point" should be on
+the registration. mgorny is the contact point, which means questions
+are directed to him, but the Council is the controller. As controller,
+the Council will delegate to relevant projects as required.
+
+It was noted that being controller should not be a burden for Council
+as any changes to these specifications would reasonably need to be
+approved by council anyway.
+
+Motion: Approve mgorny's official request to IANA for a media type for official
+Gentoo file formats, with council@ as the "change controller"
+Result: 6 yes, 0 no, 1 abstention (not present in meeting). Motion passes.
+
+
+Open bugs with council participation
+====================================
+
+- Bug 835152 - "Mirror pkgcore/* repos from github"
+
+ Council hadn't yet been un-CCed as agreed before, so agreed
+ to do it now.
+
+- Bug 176186 - "Gentoo projects file hosting"
+
+ Ditto.
+
+
+Open floor
+==========
+
+- tamiko (proxying for dilfridge) asked how the "status update" is
+ coming along that was requested from the Gentoo Foundation a while ago.
+
+ ajak noted this has been discussed a bit with antarus (the Foundation president)
+ after the 2022-06-12 meeting and antarus was unclear as to what was specifically
+ wanted from the Foundation. ajak summarised the interaction as
+ "yes it's a problem, but bandwidth is short and foundation isn't in the way of anything
+ since council is the leading body anyway". antarus asked for a formal request
+ on the gentoo-nfp/gentoo-project mailing lists from council to move forward because
+ of the ambiguity. antarus repeated this at the end of the meeting.
+
+ tamiko will relay the request to dilfridge to write a formal request.
+
+ sam noted that discussion on the mailing lists may work better as robbat2,
+ one of the trustees, is not usually available at the time of council meetings,
+ so can access the discussion there.
+
+- sam noted that his recent agenda items which included references to the
+ Council meeting being held on IRC had increased attendance and Council
+ agreed to include these in future agendas to improve understanding of
+ Council work & accessibility of Council meetings.
