17:00 UTC will likely not work for me.

0 ... this proposal needs further discussion. It's way too complex and 
way too intrusive to be able to comment on in a short emails.

In my understanding, the globus package set is an arbitrary set of 
packages like many 1000 others in Fedora and therefore doesn't need 
specialized rules in the FPG.

I would presume this kind of "wisdom" to be "elementary and basic 
knowledge", people without should not package packages for Fedora.

Apart of this, this proposal is misleading ("should honor", IMO "must 
honor"), partially wrong (make CFLAGS=... is wrong for modern autotools 
based packages), ... I don't find this proposal helpful.

=> My vote: -1

I'm afraid I missed it too, sorry (note as far as I'm concerned we really
need a new meeting time)

But yet I don't see from you a response to the request to list out
your available times.  We can't choose a time unless you tell us all
of the times that you are available.

Hmm, you're right, I can see the mail right there in my send folder, but
not in the mailinglist archives. Let me resend it.
