Hi there
Back online. We are planning our next meeting for 24th of august, 19h
UTC on #mageia-dev. In between we will work on some burning subjects
(backports incis meetiluded) so that we can take final decisions
during this meeting.
As usual and as it's a long time we did not have any meeting, you can
propose some topics to be added. We will need a review on current
mentoring (André ?) and secteam (Stew ?).
Well, one thing that had bitten me twice is that with my ATI Radeon HD cards,
the Mageia installations from the dual CD were unusable on two computers
I tried due to the lack of the "radeon-firmware" package. After I installed
that package, and rebuilt the initrds, then the problems were solved. Still,
it didn't look good at all.
Is this fact peculiar to the dual CD, and is better in the DVDs or do we not
use radeon-firmeware by default globally? I'd like this discussed in the next
meeting.
Regards,
Shlomi Fish
I'd like to add another thing to the meeting topics:
The discussion about non-free / tainted, which lasted really long,
but AFAICS there is no concensus or decision, and the discussion
has effectively reached a standstill. My tries to get this going again have not
succeeded so far.
For reference, have a look at those:

https://www.mageia.org/pipermail/mageia-dev/2011-July/007001.html
For some people the situation seems really clear, also to me,
this viewpoint is what tmb expressed in his mail:
https://www.mageia.org/pipermail/mageia-dev/2011-July/006560.html
But in the end we need a definitive decision.
