Notes
Thank you @jbostian!
- Debian is having problems supporting the S390x architecture, and are suggesting dropping support without someone committing to help by November 27
- Hardware/platform resources through Marist should be available
- Finding an owner is the challenge
- Concern about how a lack of Debian support ripples through the larger OS ecosystem
- Will impact containerized workloads
- John to set up a call with Phlipp Kern, and loop in Len Sanatalucia, David Edelsohn, Ingo Adlung, Joe Bostian
- Review the Project ambassador Program
- Ambassadors should come from each project, and be an integral part of the group
- Decided to move ahead, review a set of candidates next month
- TerseDecompress - reviewed comments from Andrew about remaining involved (he is interested)
- Github actions for hosted projects is up and running
- Polycephaly project is beginning to use for CI/CD
- Others are beginning to use
- Project reviews
- Brief reviews from Ambitus, Feilong, GenevaERS, Software Discovery Tool, Polycephaly, Zorow, Mentorship, Zowe
