Week 46/2007
== Most important happenings ==
* [:RobMyers: Rob Myers] (_blah_) is working towards getting all
bugzilla deps into EPEL, which resulted in a huge number of new perl
packages in EPEL5-testing during the past week. Thx for your great work
Rob, it's much appreciated!
== Mailing list ==
=== Noteworthy discussions ===
Nothing earth-shaking.
== Meeting ==
=== Next Meeting ===
20071107 at '''18:00 UTC''' in #fedora-meeting.
Please note that it's 18:00 UTC now again after the DST switch, so the
effective meeting time should stay the same for everyone! And a second
reminder: we currently meet only every second week (the ones with a odd
week number)!
