i'd keep them as sep topics as the first should go through quickly without 
discussion.  the latter i'm not terribly sold on -- the understanding is that 
a council member should have the good sense to only pick an appropriate proxy.  
the definition of appropriate is of course up for grabs.  ignoring the 
tools, there is the possibility of bringing non-devs further into the Gentoo 
fold (assuming the proxy is well versed in the topics at hand and not just 
another body) ...

then again, looking at the 4 year history, this has never happened, so it's 
doubtful it will happen.  guess the proposal is fine.

here's an item that should be relatively quick to address: fix the typo in 
GLEP 39 where this line is missing (it's been in the council homepage 
forever):
Only Gentoo developers may be nominated

note that previous councils already decided that they are allowed to modify 
GLEP 39 in place with the normal council voting procedure and if they notify 
the mailing lists with exact changes (see 20070208 summary for an example).

[GLEP56]

I've committed the changes that I made as a result of the feedback 
received. You can see the diff [1] or view the full source [2] or see 
the pretty HTML [3].


Quick highlight of changes:

- All PMS references are gone
 - restrict purely refers to the Gentoo Developer Handbook
 - CP/CPV refers to the Gentoo Developer Manual
- Added backwards compatibility section to detail how we're going to 
maintain compatible.
- No reference to default language, leaving that to the Gentoo Developer 
Handbook

User Relations authority

Ferris asks: Does userrel have the authority to enforce the Code of 
Conduct on users in the same way devrel does for developers?

Preparation: Donnie will start a thread on the -council list. Post your 
opinion there. If everyone's posted in advance of the meeting, status

Goal: Reach a decision on-list no later than July 17.


Extent of Code of Conduct enforcement

Ferris asks: Can people be entirely banned from Gentoo (mailing lists, 
IRC channels, etc.)? Who can do it, how's it work, under whose 
authority? Are there any prerequisites? He cites the corner case of 
refusal to accept a security patch.

Ferris, I couldn't make enough sense out of your long email to council@ 
to summarize any more of it reasonably, sorry. Please send a response to 
this that succinctly clarifies any part of your agenda proposals that I 
got wrong.

There was no real debate about that (the only question was where), and 
Cardoe said this morning that he was just going to commit it. If people 
had any problems, they would've posted them to the thread.


  
Yep. I actually gave everyone a little bit longer to protest. It seemed 
like everyone was in favor of this move but no one made the commit. It 
now exists in profiles/default/linux/make.defaults. I created a tracker 
for any issues that crop up. [1]

This is delicate.  I have asked for two items on the agenda for the next
meeting, but so far they are on mail aliases only.  I can post them
here, and I want them public.  Please advise.

 Keep in mind that every GLEP *re*submission to the council for review
 must first be sent to the gentoo-dev mailing list 7 days (minimum)
 before being submitted as an agenda item which itself occurs 7 days
 before the meeting.  Simply put, the gentoo-dev mailing list must be
 notified at least 14 days before the meeting itself.
