Hi all! Mroe detailed variant of the summary and the full log can be found at: http://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Extras/SteeringCommittee/Meeting-20061228 Note: due to the holiday season is was expected that probably only small number of people could participate. FESCo nevertheless choose to run a small and meeting without actually voting on anything. == Summary == === Minimal approve messages === Background: Some packages ( krename: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=220210 and pyfribidi: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=219071 ) were not branched by our human cvs guards because it was unclear if a full review had beed done for them -- at branch request time there was only a small note "APPROVED" in a comment of thereview bugs without details what things had been checked * dgilmore: the reason i refused to branch those two packages was that the review just said i approve this; [...] i had no way to know if any checking or anything was done * tibbs: I agree that minimal reviews are bad (although they used to be more common) but I'm not sure the two in question were minimal. * thl: I'm wondering if we should add a rule like "the review has to at least mention 8 points he checked when approving a package" The decision went towards a proposed new rule: "the reviewer has to at least mention that he checked the license, if the sources match upstream and 5 other points he checked when approving a package". Dgilmore will post to f-e-l about this whole thing in more detail and start a public discussion before FESCo discusses this further. Site note: the packages will probably get branched now, but the general problem remains. === How to get something realized in Extras === thl wrote http://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Extras/Schedule/HowToGetSomethingRealized , tibbs improved it slightly -- FESCO members that were around liked it, Will get posted to f-e-l for further comments. === free discussion around Extras === * there are still so many broken deps -> seems the ones that are left need real work. * XulChris: "is a dist tag of fc#.foo okay for 3rd party repos?" Some disussions around this, the general consensus was "yes". XulChris will probably make a wiki page for guidelines (no rules -- people don't have to follow it, but they can if they want) on setting up a 3rd party repo and what dist-tag to use.
