Hello everyone, I'll be coordinating a BOF for Debian Policy at DebConf 10 on Monday (tomorrow) at 14:00 in 414 Schapiro. I don't have slides or much of an introductory talk (I'm giving a full presentation on Tuesday and that exhausted my slide-writing ability), but I wanted to throw out some questions and thoughts for people to think about when coming. And encourage people to come!
Proposed topics: * Where we're at now and recent status * Major pending work to catch up with current Debian - Triggers - symbols files - LSB init headers * External Policy documents to possibly adopt - Webapps - Python - Java * The current update procedure: is it working? should we tweak it? * How to manage Policy change * How you can help The BOF is opposite Java and Python talks that I suspect that a lot of people will want to attend, so I suspect discussion of Python and Java policy in this BOF will be limited. I'm also around DebConf 10 all week and am definitely good to talk about Policy (and other things!) in the hall, hacklabs, over lunch, etc. I'm going to be wandering the nearby city for lunch and dinner rather than eating in the cafeteria, since it seems like a shame to be in New York and not sample the city's food, and if you have similar plans, I'd love to join up. -- Russ Allbery ([email protected]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
