Weekly EPEL Summary

Week 22/2007

Most important happenings

• MikeMcGrath, MaxSpevack and ThorstenLeemhuis meet Dag Wieers, Axel Thimm, Lance Davis, Ralph Angenendt

and some other CentOS guys on LinuxTag; we talked a bit (round about 100 Minutes iirc) about cooperation and communication; I'd say it was a good chat and I suppose we understand each others positions better. Repotags were discussed as well; but I'll bring that topic up over the next few days for EPEL separately.

EPEL SIG Meeting

No meeting this week due to MikeMcGrath and ThorstenLeemhuis on LinuxTag in another meeting and thus afk.
