Bugs with council involvement
=============================

Approve GLEP 68 change: add <stabilize-allarches/> to metadata.xml
------------------------------------------------------------------

Allow marking ebuilds as arch-independent for stabilization purposes.
Trivial portable scripts is the main intended use case.

- Vote: 7 yes, unanimous

Approve GLEP 74 change: removing one filesystem restriction
-----------------------------------------------------------

Overlayfs use multiple filesystems to construct ebuild tree.
The proposal is to allow such use case.

- Vote: 7 yes, unanimous

Joint venture to deal with copyright issues
-------------------------------------------

Dropped. Left for trustee/council joint meeting.


GLEP 14 needs to be updated by security@
----------------------------------------

K_F reported it's being worked on.

Open floor
==========

Update on EAPI=7 from mgorny:
- Planned/abandoned features: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Future_EAPI/EAPI_7_tentative_features
- EAPI 7 support is progressing nicely (woohoo!)
- ulm has noted he'd like to withdraw 'sandbox path removal functions'
  probably in favour of single 'esandbox' command in EAPI 8 instead of
  separate functions
- IUSE_RUNTIME and ||= will probably not be implemented
- and i'd really appreciate if someone took a look at dostrip
  [editor's note: implementation is done by mgorny]
