* Technical Board meeting, 2010-01-12 (chair cjwatson) * Prior action review, leaves the following still to do: * [ACTION] kees to follow up with Debian TC on units policy * [ACTION] cjwatson to follow up with mythbuntu-dev to get ubuntu-core-dev added * [ACTION] ScottK to update Kubuntu/UpdatesPolicy based on Kubuntu upstream feedback (cf. http://techbase.kde.org/Policies/Minor_Point_Release_Policy/Draft) * [ACTION] sabdfl to propose to CC that the TB is a CC delegate, and clarify his role * Units Policy * We discussed briefly whether to recommend that developers go ahead with implementation in advance of feedback from the Debian TC. The majority of the board preferred to wait for at least a while, since we've requested feedback and should wait for it, and since the benefit may not outweigh the cost of carrying another stack of patches. * Check back on status next meeting. * When is it a good idea to fail out of a maintainer script? (MattZimmerman) * While there is loose agreement that "something ought to be done" about this, the technical options are not yet clear enough to decide something at the TB level. Shelving for the moment; mdz will bring this up on ubuntu-devel if and when he gets the chance to put together some detailed options. * Execute Permission Policy (KeesCook) * After some discussion, the TB ratified this policy (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/Policies#Execute-Permission%20Bit%20Required) conditional on detailed feedback from the desktop team, including the unresolved question of what happens to existing handlers on upgrade. Mark's +1 was on the condition that we will have time to iterate implementation before Lucid or pull it entirely if it doesn't work out. * Check up on community bugs (standing item) * The only item already has an associated action. * Next meeting is 2010-01-26.
