| http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/Tasks/Misc * the old script isn't running anymore * discussing how to move forward; the script from mschwendt looks better then the old one, as it mails the list as well (and likely runs faster); more discussions needed (see also: https://www.redhat.com/archives/epel-devel-list/2008-January/msg00194.html ) * next testing -> stable move | knurd | http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/Tasks/NextTestingStableMove * knurd prepared it prepared and improved the docs how to do the move * KojiAndBodhiForEpel | mmcgrath | http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/Tasks/KojiAndBodhiForEpel * no news from Jess_S or mmcgrath * fill the steering committee | all | http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/Tasks/Misc * smooge (who self nominated on the list) was approved as steering committee member * knurd want's to leave: * thus we have a vacant seat again; self-nominations welcome; quaid: "I wonder if any of the RHTers who deal with RHX would be interested" * smooge and nirik are nominated as new chairmen; more nominations welcome; new chair will be elected in the next meeting * new meeting time can be discussed * Free discussion around EPEL * smooge> | ok how are we doing for packages etc?
