Following is the preliminary meeting agenda. It consists of two EAPI-3
related topics as well as two almost rusty topics where we should
finally make a decision to be able to move on.


EAPI 3: Short discussion of the progress
----------------------------------------

zmedico will provide an update on the progress of the implementation.
Short discussion of problems and implementation decisions if needed.


EAPI 3: PMS approval
--------------------

Goal: Approve EAPI-3 extension of the PMS. Any open questions should be
on the mailing list before the meeting.


GLEP 54: Dealing with live SCM packages
---------------------------------------

Goal: Since no consensus is reached or progress has been made voting
seems appropriate.


Handling EAPI versioning in a forwards-compatible way
-----------------------------------------------------

Goal: Since no consensus is reached vote on the implementation for the
problem solved in GLEP 55.


Handling static libraries more flexibly
---------------------------------------

Goal: Decision-making by consensus. 
Should we move forward with USE=static-libs to control 
building of static libraries? Should/Must this be an EAPI feature?


Define EAPI development/deployment cycles
-----------------------------------------

Goal: Start discussion about EAPI development/deployment. For example:
Collect problems of eapi introductions in the past, like reverting
ebuilds to former eapis to get them stable, not waiting for the pm
support a certain eapi before requesting stable keywords for ebuilds
using the new eapi, .... Collect problems of EAPI development like
feature-freeze, late feature removals (due to implementation problems).
Eventually develop a lightweight EAPI development model.


Cheers,
Tiziano
