I don't even know if a committee is the best approach for EPEL, but as someone who supported the formation of a committee for a limited amount of time in order to deal with the issues documented in the above linked wiki pages, I'm trying to get a grasp of where things stand. > > > Additionally, are meetings still happening regularly?

I think this could help shape up a conversation around some concrete next steps/tasks that we (people who care about EPEL) could contribute to. Regarding the meetings: I'm not a huge fan of meetings, but I think they may be a good way to allow people to get more involved in EPEL; especially if summaries are posted to the list so that people who aren't on IRC or can't make the meetings can easily see what's happening. -Jeff
