Wiki for future use.\footnote{This was done later as
\wgoref{Project:Council/Meeting_summary_guidelines}.}

\dev{dilfridge} gave a short introduction what problems the proposal addresses:
1), algorithmically finding out which arches are ``stable'', 2) introducing an
official state for arches that have stable keywords for arch team usage only,
3), easing transitions from and to stable state of an arch. This is achieved by
introducing a new file arches.desc in profiles.
After some discussion and clarification, about the corresponding user
configuration as well as the impact on catalyst, the topic was tabled for
further discussion on the mailing lists and revisiting at the next meeting.
An additional suggestion was to add a column to the arches.desc file that
specifies whether an arch is security-supported.
\agendaitem{Open bugs with council involvement}
\begin{itemize}

This topic boiled down into a lengthy discussion how single participants
dominate mailing list threads, inhowfar that influences Gentoo's public
perception, and what could be done to improve the situation. In addition, it
was discussed whether the ComRel team should become involved. In the end a vote
was taken:
\vote{Do we want moderation of gentoo-dev and gentoo-project?}{not passed, with
5 no, 1 yes, 1 absent}

\end{itemize}
