Hi,

Though the weekly meetings haven't been as regular, we have been having 
some conversations the last couple of weeks.

Package Reviews
----------------

Debarishi and Soumya Kanti Chakraborty has a couple of packages reviews 
waiting on queue

LDTP

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=459010

Python-statgrab

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=459010

The second package is a dependency for the first one.

I have Griffith waiting on review as well

Session on spins
----------------

Next week at the usual time (Sunday 6:30 PM), I will be holding a irc 
session on creating your own distribution based on Fedora. This is a 
broad topic so we will be dealing specifically with the usage of 
livecd-tools to create live media images and derivatives. If you are 
interested, do let me know in advance so that I have a better sense of 
the audience. If you are going to follow through as a virtual workshop, 
I strongly recommend that you have a local mirror of the Fedora 
repository available. Any currently maintained release of Fedora is fine 
although I recommend rawhide branch for the latest features.

Others?

If anyone else have been working on Fedora related things, do let us 
know and if you need help, don't hesitate to ask.
