Tasks

History

Look at the summit pages in the wiki to see what was discussed on the meeting. Especially Opening Core

Long term

• how do we review ~1160 packages from Core for Extras in less then X months (X=something between 2 and 5 afaics)?

• will there be a release team? If yes: where is it's position in this game? At the same level or below FESCo (which is below FPB)

• will community members like it if we switch away from the rolling release model in the future? Is there a alternatie for those that like the rolling release model? We might scare away our contributors otherwise...

• how to we get lmacken's updates stuff merged with the current Extras push scripts? And the

• should we also have a fedora buildsys sig temporary?

• decisions on governance:

• Details on new FESCo still need to be resolved. (When election occurs, number of members)

• can FESCo (in)directly give orders to red hat people (you need to work on foo now, otherwise we don't get the package unierse in shape for F7)

• has FESCo still enough manpower to solve issues the community has? do we need a community sig or something like that?

• we should have that kind of online IRC Q&A after we officially announce the fedora merge plans
