Hi all! Please find below this weeks EPEL report. It's also in the wiki at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/Reports/Week20 Cu thl ---- = Weekly EPEL Summary = Week 20/2007 == Most important happenings == * mether (RahulSundaram) did some proof reading and cleanups in various EPEL documents in the wiki; thx for your help mether! quaid (KarstenWade) is also working on cleaning up the wiki. * "start signal" for Fedora contributors was send; see https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-maintainers/2007-May/msg00323.html ; EPEL got quite some new contributors and packages due to it * [https://www.redhat.com/archives/epel-devel-list/2007-May/msg00052.html some discussions] about the proper update strategy for packages == EPEL SIG Meeting == === Attending === >From the Steering Committee: * dgilmore (DennisGilmore) * knurd (ThorstenLeemhuis) * mmcgrath (MikeMcGrath) * nirik (KevinFenzi) * quiad (KarstenWade) Stahnma (MichaelStahnke) just missed the meeting. Others that participated the meeting: Jeff_S, lmacken, smooge === Summary === * 00:02 -- repotags/interaction with 3rd party repos -- owner: all * we wait for more discussion on the list (in particular for Fernando Lopez-Lezcano before we decide how to move on) * knurd also want to discuss cooperation with CentOS/z00dax a bit, which might have impact to this, too * 00:04 -- vacant seat in the steering committee * knurd mailed those five people thimm proposed; four answered; they gave a "no" or a "only if you don't find somebody else" kind of answers; we wait another week and evaluate; maybe z00dax could join the Steering Committee (even without being a contributor for EPEL, as he can't sign the CLA) * 00:06 -- finish the wiki docs and remove the warnings * mether and quaid did some cleanups; quaid will do some more over the next few days; the plan is to remove the those "not official yet" warning by next weeks meeting, but the EPEL repo itself stays unannounced * some discussion about bodhi with lmacken under this topic; see full log for details * 00:14 -- Free discussion around EPEL * 00:15 nirik asked for comments regarding Xfce in EPEL, as Xfce will soon get into CentOS Extras, too; (see full log for details); knurd mentions that we should have it in EPEL, even if CentOS Extras has it, but we should try to find a way of cooperation so bugfixes find their way into CentOS Extras, EPEL and Fedora * 00:20 nirik> "oh, how about mock configs?" dgilmore will make sure they work * 00:25 smooge> "Will we be answering who the EPEL customers are thought to be to distinguish it from other customer bases?"; we continue on the list, but we maybe should write something up and put it in the wiki * 00:26 some discussions about RHEL subscriptions for testing; quiad "I haven't gotten too far with that ... still looking for the right person"; lots of people say that CentOS should be god enough for testing normally; but having some testboxes with RHEL around might be helpful === Full meeting log === See https://www.redhat.com/archives/epel-devel-list/2007-May/msg00088.html == Stats == === General === Number of EPEL Contributors 74 We welcome 13 new
