[oe] TSC Meeting Minutes for September I

[Holger Freyther]

Hi all,

I am late and we are waiting to summarize the second meeting. I wonder if
someone would be interested to play secretary (well, I'm the closest to that)
like the board has one at FreeBSD.

TSC Meeting of 2nd of September 2010

NOTE: The ending stopped before every topic was discussed, there will
be another meeting to continue on Tuesday the 7th 15:00 UTC.


TOPICS:
  Outstanding issues with the TSC
  Future Items
  Giving Direction to OE
  Pace of removal
  OEDEM and ELC-E
  Infrastructure and the maintainers of it
  TSC escalation procedure
  base.bbclass: SOC_FAMILY
  testing branch, quality concerns in general
  Previous Minutes (missing ones)
  Feedback over last TSC issue


== Outstanding issues with the TSC ==

The list of outstanding issues can be found here[1]. For manageable tasks we
have found volunteers within the TSC, for bigger tasks it didn't seem to be
practical to assign someone. The policies are on the agenda and will be
discussed later.

We have assigned the following:
	insane.bbclass assigned to pb_
	master branch create the alias to holger
	packaged-staging assigned to kergoth

Unpractical to assign a single person:
	recipe cleanup
	staging removal

== Feedback over last TSC issue ==

The TSC got a request to make a statement about the pace of removing
recipes. In this case actively used recipes were removed without giving
enough time to review, creating build issues and issues in the binary
feed. The TSC has asked to reduce the speed of removal and most importantly
allow enough time to review. We have proposed to either use a branch or
to use the removal.txt to indicate which recipes will be deleted.

The TSC did not inform the requester about the outcome of the issue. In
the future we will put a anonymous statement on the TSC page and will
inform the requester.
