= Weekly EPEL Summary =

Week 05/2008 

== Most important happenings ==

 * EPEL5 testing -> stable move happened (as always around the 1st each month). 
We have now 1011 different software packages (counting SRPMs) in the EPEL5 
proper repositories for RHEL5/CentOS5.

 * Two things from 
https://www.redhat.com/archives/epel-devel-list/2008-January/msg00191.html

  * Stephen J Smoogen ([:StephenJSmoogen:smooge]) filled the vacant seat in the 
EPEL Steering Committee

  * Thorsten Leemhuis ([:ThorstenLeemhuis:knurd]) will step down as chair for 
the EPEL Steering Committee; he also plans to leave it, thus there is another 
seat to fill (see also 
https://www.redhat.com/archives/epel-devel-list/2008-January/msg00177.html ); 
self nominations welcome

Summary:

 * broken dep reports go to the list  | mmcgrath ? | 
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/Tasks/Misc

  * the old script isn't running anymore

  * discussing how to move forward; the script from mschwendt looks better then 
the old one, as it mails the list as well (and likely runs faster); more 
discussions needed (see also: 
https://www.redhat.com/archives/epel-devel-list/2008-January/msg00194.html )

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/Tasks/NextTestingStableMove

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/Tasks/Misc

  * smooge (who self nominated on the list) was approved as steering committee 
member

  * knurd want's to leave:

   * thus we have a vacant seat again; self-nominations welcome; quaid: "I 
wonder if any of the RHTers who deal with RHX would be interested"

   * smooge and nirik are nominated as new chairmen; more nominations welcome; 
new chair will be elected in the next meeting

   * new meeting time can be discussed 

 * Free discussion around EPEL

  * smooge> | ok how are we doing for packages etc? how many are still in 
waiting to be branched etc? and wish list?

   * no exact numbers, but there are likely about 2500 - 3000 packages 
(counting SRPMS) in Fedora which are not in EPEL

  * smooge> | I think once we are pushing things regularly and getting more 
packages.. it would be a good idea to start recruuitiong more mirrors

   * more mirrors can't hurt; asking on that closed mirror list might be the 
best start to get more mirrors
