+
+GLEP76 update
+=============
+robbat2 proposed changes to GLEP76's "name policy" [1].
+
+Various concerns were raised during the Council meeting:
+
+  - mattst88 asked what is the objective in requiring "real names" for
+    contributors. In other words, what problem are we hoping to avoid by
+    implementing the proposed changes?
+
+    robbat2 replies that we semi-inherited the "real name requirement" from
+    the Kernel DCO when Gentoo adopted it, and mattst88 questions what the
+    analogous situation for Gentoo would be, given that the Kernel DCO was
+    created in response to a lawsuit over allegations that SCO-owned UNIX code
+    had been included in Linux, and it seems unlikely that e.g. a few lines
+    of a PKGBUILD file copied into an ebuild would lead to a similar
+    situation.
+
+    robbat2 replies later during open floor to say that "analogous situation
+    for Gentoo exists around *novel* code that might be taken from a
+    propietary source". (In other words, the focus is not on ebuilds, but
+    Gentoo-hosted software projects and large patchsets)
+
+  - ulm, in reply to a response from robbat2 about the meaning of "records"
+    suggests that we should clarify that we mean "government records". robbat2
+    says that not all governments have searchable records. mgorny asks what
+    would this search prove. CatSwarm (a contributor to the GLEP) says it's
+    dubious to think that government records are easily accessible when GLEP76
+    doesn't require a contributor to specify their residence.
+
+  - CatSwarm says that the changes being proposed are a major change in tone
+    to what they contributed to.
+
+  - ajak and CatSwarm suggest that if the discussion should move back to the
+    mailing list.
+
+Motion: Table the issue and continue discussion on the mailing list
+Accepted 7-0
+
+    After the meeting closes, there appears to be agreement that those with
+    concerns will take them to the mailing list discussion before the next
+    council meeting.
+
+    11:50 <@ajak> i really think we should move the discussion to the ML
+    11:50 <@ulm> ajak: and we will
+    11:50 <@ajak> so, please, everyone with concerns about the GLEP, please
+                  take concerns to gentoo-project where we've been having this
+                  discussion since july

+
+Open bugs with council involvement
+==================================
+- Bug 729062 "Services and Software which is critical for Gentoo should be developed/run in the Gentoo namespace"
+  This was recently reassigned to council@ due to Whissi's retirement.
+
+  Whissi assigned the bug to himself 2021-05-09 in order to remove it from
+  future Council discussions until he followed up with jstein@.
+
+  No updates.
+
+- Bug 876921 "Vote on GLEP 68 update to 1.3"
+  Votes cast on bugzilla. Accepted 7-0.
+
+Open floor
+==========
+arthurzam requests that the Council meeting logs contain a mention of any bugs
+the Council voted on between meetings. We think we do that, and agree to keep
+bugs open until the next council meeting to ensure they're documented.
+
+More discussion of GLEP76 during open floor, and after the meeting ends.
