I would tend to prefer this than a standardized bi-weekly report. A lot
of times things don't change much, or its just general "maintenance"
type stuff that happens in the background. And as stated in a later
email, we can send a report to the council before the meeting in case we
can't make it to it. Many of us lead busy lives during the day and
having a free hour for yet-another-meeting is troublesome a lot of the
times.

I understand the lack of communication on some of the aspects of infra
specifically. Frankly, the attitude of a lot devs lately towards infra
have made many of us not want to communicate what we're doing. If we're
not getting respected by you, then why should we respect you back? At
least for me personally, I don't hold any personal grudges against
anyone unless you stop respecting the group and/or me. Personally, I
think the larger problem in Gentoo itself is the attitudes of many
developers. Communication aside, it means nothing if we can't deal with
each other in a semi-professional manner. It seems like mini-flame
explosions on irc/email have happened more frequently in the last few
months. This is just going to make the group implode if nothing is done
about it.

Anyways, that's my thoughts.
