  * Some notes:
   * There are components of the proposal which go beyond packaging
     policy and are not considered by FPC.  This includes the
     CompsPolicy document and sections of the draft relating to
     grouping or comps.  These should be discussed by FESCo.

     was approved as part of this proposal with the caveat that the
     scriptlets be prevented from failing.

Misc business:
 * Three volunteers expressed interest in joining the committee; spot
   will poll the membership and we'll decide whether to expand the
   committee or rotate through some members on-list.
 * Next meeting will be December 4th at 17:00UTC.
