Summary
- some discussions about a new meeting time; we'll talk about it when we are full again
- repotags -- all; the steering committee talks about it in private currently if and (mainly) how to do them; we mainly need to put in in words
- EPEL mock configs in Fedora's mock package; nirik and Jeff_S will look into this over the next few days
- comps.xml for EPEL -- dgilmore will get one started; stahnma volunteered to help
- bodhi/testing repo/final repo layout -- bodhi needs koji these days, so EPEL needs to switch to koji to use bodhi (which we want for several reasons); dgimore will talk to mbonnet about a timeframe to use koji (which needs adjustments) for EPEL
- vacant seat in the steering committee
-- Jeff_S self nominated; but we want to solve the repotags issue first (over the next week), and fill the vacant seat afterwards
- template for requesting a contributer to get their packages into EPEL
-- idea is welcomed, further discussion on the list appreciated
