Weekly EPEL Summary

Week 46/2007

Most important happenings

  • Rob Myers (_blah_) is working towards getting all bugzilla deps into EPEL, which resulted in a huge number of new perl packages in EPEL5-testing during the past week. Thx for your great work Rob, it's much appreciated!

Mailing list

Noteworthy discussions

Nothing earth-shaking.

Meeting

Next Meeting

20071107 at 18:00 UTC in #fedora-meeting.

Please note that it's 18:00 UTC now again after the DST switch, so the effective meeting time should stay the same for everyone! And a second reminder: we currently meet only every second week (the ones with a odd week number)!

Last weeks meeting

Was a week with an even number, thus no meeting.
