Hey all,
we'll do a base-system team meeting 15/May 19:00 utc, on #gentoo-base.
There will be only one agenda item, lead election (since I'm stepping
down as base lead and will not seek re-election).
Cheers,
Andreas

Mike,
could you please do this just like everyone else, i.e. file a bug and give
arch teams a go? Even if you're on all the arch teams? Even if you know the
code best? More eyes do not hurt.
(I am absolutely not in the mood right now for hunting down why alpha stage
builds now fail.)

Hi all,
due to having somewhat too many Gentoo projects and not enough time at
the moment, I'd like to ask for help with perl-cleaner here.
It is in most cases not necessary anymore, and I personally have not
used it for ages, since the automated rebuilds via subslots make it
obsolete.

It would be non-multilib one-or-the-other then for us.

directory structure and the ABI sets supported by glibc. According to
