The only major topic was the 1.6.6 release.

== Timing ==

We expect Linux 3.13 to be released this weekend. We're planning to release 
OpenAFS 1.6.6 immediately after that has happened, assuming that no last minute 
Linux changes require more work on our side.

Preliminary tarballs will be prepared a.s.a.p., and binary builds not depending 
on the tag could then start.

== Changes to include ==

=== Enable RPM builds on Fedora 20 and RHEL 7: ===

10703   RedHat: support building on ELRepo kernels
10704   RedHat: Fix specfile changelog
10619   RedHat: Munge future kernel versions
10622   Fedora: Handle new kernel variant paths

RHEL7 builds will still ship sysvinit scripts rather than systemd unit files, 
since gerrit 10631 won't make it.

=== Revert the "server side NAT pings" feature: === 

Prerelease testing hasn't produced any evidence that it actually helps, while 
it would cause additional network traffic.

10135   Revert "viced: Enable NAT ping on hosts"

=== Doc fixes and routine changes: ===

10597   rx: Remove obsolete comment
10601   doc: fix a nit in fs_newalias.pod
10330   Make OpenAFS 1.6.6
tbd     Update NEWS for 1.6.6

=== Binaries ===

We hope for Red Hat and SuSE Linux builds from the usual sources (Stephen and 
Christof). As for the previous 1.6 releases, Ben plans to contribute FreeBSD 
builds and Andrew & Mike plan to contribute Solaris ones.

No binaries for any OS X release were available for pre1 and pre2, and noone is 
planning to provide them for the final 1.6.6. The most serious problem still 
seems to be the creation of an installer for OS X 10.9.
