== Status of cdrtools discussion == Mark has offered to obtain a legal opinion from the Software Freedom Law Center, on the condition that Joerg Schilling will agree up front to accept their determination. We are waiting for Joerg to respond to this proposal. Mark suggested that we also involve Sun in the discussion, as they are shipping cdrtools. Action: Mark to contact Sun legal regarding cdrtools == Gobby co-maintenance with Debian == Philipp Kern, upstream developer and Debian maintainer of gobby, and MOTU, is interested in helping to maintain gobby in Ubuntu main. We agreed that this is reasonable, and that Phillipp's existing qualifications are sufficient to grant upload privileges. Action: Matt to arrange upload rights for gobby for pkern == Revisiting limited upload privileges for kernel and printing packages == The Technical Board granted core-dev privileges to two developers (Tim Gardner and Till Kamppeter) interested in working with specific packages in main, with the proviso that they were to follow standard sponsorship processes for other packages. Now that Launchpad has the capability to implement this type of access control directly, we agreed to transition these developers from ubuntu-core-dev to per-package upload rights. Action: Matt to follow up with Tim and Till == Board membership/nominations == The Technical Board is in search of new members, and suggestions from the community have been received and reviewed. The next step is to contact the top candidates (most were suggested by third parties) and ask whether they are willing to serve in the position. Action: Mark to contact the candidates and confirm their interest -- - mdz -- ubuntu-devel-announce mailing list ubuntu-devel-announce@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-announce
