Summary
- what did everyone think of how things have gone since the announcement?
- we probably should have a link on the front page of fp.o and fp.o/wiki; or perhaps a epel.fedoraproject.org cname?
- some discussions about collecting and publishing statistics
- branch for EPEL if Fedora maintainer does not react
- more discussions on the list
- new push scripts for pushing to testing, adjust mock configs to use
- dgilmore will take care of it
- security will need manual handling; nirik is willing to help
- EPEL announcement happened -- what next?
- nirik> | more packages, more maintainers, more users. ;)
- nirik> | if we could move to koji at some point and bodhi that would be good... dgilmore> | needs to be done but requires coders
- dgilmore> | does anyone have ideas on how to get more packages in EPEL? nirik> | I have some more I am going to do, but haven't had time... hopefully soon I will get munin in and possibly will look at Xfce (matching the centos extra versions so we don't conflict if possible)
