[Apologies for not getting around to writing minutes for the last three 
meetings.

== 1.6.5.1 ==

Linux 3.12 is about a month away (marc successfully tested rc4+), and there's 
no point in waiting
for OS X Maverick either. 

It was decided to include a last change, the fix for Linux kernels w/o keyring 
support from Christof
in gerrit 10331. This and the corresponding NEWS entry in 10332 were merged 
during the meeting, and
the resulting HEAD should become the final 1.6.5.1 release. 10331 is considered 
sufficiently simple
not to invalidate the many positive test results for the close-to-final 
tarballs from last week.

Stephan will ask Derrick for the tag and cut the final tarballs. We won't wait 
for binaries before
releasing. They can be added later once available. Providing AIX binaries would 
make sense.

== 1.6.6 ==

All changes currently foreseen and ready for 1.6.6 were merged.

There is a suspicion that gerrit 10310 may be a cause of more frequent parallel 
build failures, even
if the change itself is correct. More statistics is needed and will be gathered 
in the next days. If
there's evidence that it does cause higher failure rates, 10310 will be backed 
out. This issue set
aside, 1.6.6pre1 can go out right after 1.6.5.1.

An alternative to 10310 is being worked on in 7921 on the master branch. If it 
does fix a problem, it could go into 1.6 too. It may well not be ready in time 
for 1.6.6 though.

== Planning for a "next stable" branch ==

Jeffrey brings up that it's time to start working on a 1.9 branch (off master), 
to become the next
stable branch - 1.10 - within a couple of months.
