Minutes: pgajdos

(1) New Teamlead

================

We have had a first meeting with our new teamlead, mvyskocil.

(2) Our Future Direction

========================

In the future, our shrinked team should concentrate mainly on SLE packages

only. We will need Help from community with openSUSE packages.

(3) libgtkstylus

================

sbrabec have reimplemented libgtkstylus project and added new features:

support for middle mouse button and filtering enter/leave events.

You are encouraged to try new libgtkstylus, find tarball at

http://ftp.penguin.cz/pub/users/utx/gtk-modules/

(4) Python Noarch Modules

=========================

Thanks to matejcik, there will be possibility to build noarch python modules

in 11.2. This is, among others, a next step to unify SUSE Package Conventions

with Fedora Packaging Guidelines.
