\summary{2007}{4}{12}

Agenda call: \agoref{gentoo-dev}{85c578debc4821504803755cd6756fb3}


\agendaitem{Code of Conduct}
\index{Code of Conduct}\index{project!proctors}

\dev{amne} has been doing a good job putting the initial group of proctors 
together. We ask the proctors to address these two issues for next meeting:
\begin{itemize}
 \item 
 add a "mission" statement, and
 \item
 fix the wording to have a positive spin.
\end{itemize}


\agendaitem{Splitting gentoo-dev mailing lists}
\index{mailing list!gentoo-dev}\index{project!proctors}
\index{mailing list!gentoo-dev-announce}

There was no real favorable backing for this idea. People don't like the -dev 
mailing list because of the crap; splitting the lists will just move the crap 
elsewhere, not really solving anything.

Let the proctors do their thing, and if need be, review this again.


\agendaitem{PMS}
\index{PMS}

The current status looks good in getting open bugs resolved. It should be up and 
running as git repository on Gentoo infrastructure by the next meeting.\footnote{Some
discussion arose about getting \dev{ciaranm} as non-developer commit access.}
Let the developers sort out the todo list as the current workflow seems
to be getting things done finally.

\agendaitem{Surveys}
\index{surveys}

\dev{robbat2} will look at getting user / developer surveys in place after the
release of 2007.0. We should probably try and take fresh surveys after each 
bi-annual release from now on to see if we are meeting many of users' desires.


\agendaitem{Limiting of council powers}
\index{council!limiting powers}

There doesnt seem to be real backing for this from dev community or the council 
itself. If a majority of developers are truly upset / disturbed by a council 
decision, it should show easily. If you dont like a council member, dont vote 
for them next time.


\agendaitem{Moving gentoo-core to public archives}
\index{mailing list!gentoo-core}\index{mailing list!gentoo-dev}

Many people dislike this moving forward. It is not going to happen at this time.
We should motivate people to use -dev over -core for most things.\footnote{The 
official summary also contains ``Look into getting a dev-only archive finally.'', 
however, there was no agreement on this in the log --- people see it as a potential
leak.}



\agendaitem{New metastructure proposal}

This doesn't seem to address any of the problems it proposes to address.\footnote{The
topic likely refers to the \agoref{gentoo-dev}{69368b0ef5e30bdfe268a92338f5196e}.}

A large majority of developers and users prefer the single tree development style 
that Gentoo has versus many smaller trees.


\agendaitem{Sync Social Contract with Gentoo Foundation (external entities)}
\index{social contract}\index{trustees}\index{foundation!trustees}

The trustees will review the statement to clarify things and then
we'll look again at syncing.\footnote{No, the log is not much clearer.}



\agendaitem{Documentation for the mail servers}

The documentation is supposed to be finished in terms of content. 
\dev{wolf31o2} will look at getting it actually committed.
