Fedora Extras Steering Committee, 7 July 2005

Present:

Regrets:

Minutes:

Link to NewPackageProcess in account system mail. Tricky due to generic nature of account system (which needs to remain as Fedora expands). Elliot to explore
Sample NewPackageProcess document. Not done yet.
NewPackageProcess vetting. Has been done, looks good with a few minor tweaks from spot and mschwendt.
cvs-import.sh creating branches. No progress.
sudoers. Fixed
Mail on commit to a contributors' module this has dependencies on other larger changes to the package submission process, so we're going to lower the priority until those happen.
New package submission process. Dave thinks some of this can be done pretty simply with bugzilla, he's going to mock up some bugs with the current db.
Write up of package review guidelines. These are up at PackageReviewGuidelines as a first pass. Additional comments and suggestions welcome.
Sponsor nominations. Question of people not being aware that they can do reviews without being a sponsor. Discussion on how to make this more clear.
Ed Hill nominated and approved.
Greg/Sopwith/Jeremy working issues with external access to machines in colo to make it easier to move things forward there.
Buildsystem update
Build boxes updated to FC4
New buildsys installed on them
Can't test new buildsys without shutting down the old so some downtime will be required.
Going to shoot for this weekend
fedoraproject.org revamp
Work is ongoing by dfong and hrishi and hopefully it'll be able to go live next week.
