= Notes =
* Review actions from last meeting
* ''Keybuk to find Bdale at LinuxCon to hash out participation'': done; Bdale will watch a few
meetings, then have a discussion. He is on the TB mailing list now.
* ''kees to drive sun-java6 email thread and get resolution on responsibility'': Neil is
soliciting migration plans; needs to be discussed in-depth at next UDS; Colin made a note about
handling it in the foundations track
* ''cjwatson to drive DMB email thread to conclusion'': followup happened, voting is ongoing
* ''Keybuk to finalize unit policy and email to TB for vote'': deferred
* ''cjwatson to drive vote on Archive Reorg rights for ubuntu-desktop and mythbuntu in email'':
Blocked on DMB email thread conclusion, deferred
* Archive reorganization:
* There is a [[https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-dev]] team now which has been blessed by the
Kubuntu council; Colin will follow up
* Naming of new packages:
* mdz raised the problem that newly created projects often change their name shortly after they
get introduced to the wide audience (example: software-store ? software-center, espresso ?
ubiquity); is there a possible process enhancement for this?
* Keybuk: renaming packages later is better than introducing packages later (and getting fewer
feedback)
* pitti: does not happen often enough to be a major concern
* cjwatson: we don't need to do this for packages that aren't really significantly user-visible
* mdz will come back with a list of packages which were renamed and how much developer effort was
wasted, to see whether any followup is required
* core-dev application process
* TB ? DMB application handling is currently in flux, and there were objections against the
proposed process
* DMB meeting next Tuesday 1400 UTC to settle on a process
* Select a chair for the next meeting
* Keybuk
* Actions from this meeting:
* Keybuk to finalize unit policy and email to TB for vote
* cjwatson to drive vote on Archive Reorg rights for ubuntu-desktop and mythbuntu in email
* pitti to announce DMB meeting next Tuesday 1400
