The short agenda for the meeting included:
All four members of the council -- Benjamin Mako Hill, Mark Shuttleworth, Colin Watson, and James Troup -- were present at the meeting and were joined by several people from the Technical Board and from the community.
Benjamin Mako Hill summarized the issue with reply-to for ubuntu users describing how, two-weeks ago, the committee had decided to switch the list to "reply-to list" on a trial basis and wait for comments.
Benjamin Mako Hill implemented the change after one week before this meeting and sent a message describing the change to the list. Mako announced that he had received no negative feedback about the change yet but that it had only been about a week. Because of the short period of time since the change, the council decided to postpone a final decision until the next community council meeting.
LoCo Team leaders are appointed directly by Matthias Urlichs who was not able to attend the meeting. While Matthias can appoint leaders personally, Mark Shuttleworth said that, "I'd still like new LoCo guys to swing through the CC, so we can chat a bit and find out if there are ways we can support them." As one example, Mark said, "for example, I'm keen to know if there are Linux magazines in Finland, and how we could get ubuntu reviewed in them."
There was some chatting with the new leader of the Finish Country Team about translations into Finish languages and related issues.
Most of the people on the list of member candidates up for review in the meeting were people who had already been approved through the MOTU process in the last two weeks and who no longer needed review from the CC. Mark Shuttleworth left early so the the rest of the council went through the list to determine who needed review.
Scott Ritchie was up for consideration but the attending Masters of the Universe asked to defer the decision until the next meeting or to them so they could look over teh packages.
The rest of the meeting was spent look through the list of candidates on the Maintainer Candidates webpage to sort out people who are now maintainers, who will be maintainers, etc.
