Open bugs with council involvement
==================================

- bug #637328: GLEP 14 needs to be updated

  Nothing new for council at this point.

- bug #642072: [Tracker] Copyright policy

  FYI. A tracker with work to do.

- bug #674608: "Unjustified developer signatures on np-hardass' key"

  After discussion this bug was closed as RESOLVED INVALID with the following
  comment: "As discussed in today's council meeting, as we do not have an
  OpenPGP WoT policy in place in Gentoo, the council does not have a role in
  this case."
