Maybe after removing sparc or hurd, I defer that to Ganneff (with also his mirroring hat) 21:18:08 Ganneff: are we so marginal on mirror space, if not, I'm not sure whether we should hold off 21:18:08 i haven't seen anyone speak up for keeping sparc, anyway? 21:18:17 it adds more space, so dropping is good. especially as we seem to add .ddebs soonish too 21:18:39 and hurd is just the usual "ohmygodno,wehurt" and sparc is noone speaking up 21:18:41 Ganneff: Well, the plan for ddeb is to have them not on the main mirror network. 21:18:42 jcristau: hmm. in that case we should possibly consider dropping sparc sooner 21:19:03 The question for sparc is if someone wants to keep them at ports... 21:19:21 i dont think ports is the place for sparc 21:19:32 we don't have graveyard.debian.org do we? 21:19:33 Even ports needs a porter. 21:19:34 even for hurd the real reason for ports doesnt fit fully 21:19:37 mhy: archive.d.o 21:19:44 jcristau: indeed 21:19:54 but unlike sparc, hurd IS active. 21:20:09 Ganneff / ansgar: let's decide sparc on-list before the next meeting then? It seems to be easier 21:20:21 #agreed hurd-i386 deferred to next meeting, sparc to be decided RSN 21:20:26 and if ports wouldnt have some requirements that make dak unfit, i think we should run it, but those "features" are meh 21:20:42 mhy: I thought we already agreed on dropping sparc? The last listed porter did so too... 21:20:44 brb in ~5 21:21:06 ansgar: ok, I misunderstood the discussion on -devel then 21:21:07 Ganneff: I think -ports could run dak, but they need some changes in their workflow. 21:21:44 personally, I think that sparc is just *dead* and no point pulling it into ports 21:22:20 mhy: Well, I agree... The mailing list doesn't seem that alive either and the buildds seem to break more and more. 21:22:33 #agreed mips64el to be bootstrapped in once sparc or hurd is gone 21:22:36 huh, faster. (sorry, son woke up and sat in mddle of room, crying) 21:22:40 ansgar: let's tackle it before the next meeting then 21:22:47 #topic Any other business 21:22:47 ansgar: if they agree, sure. 21:22:57 for the public bit of meeting, does anyone have anything else? 21:23:28 ansgar: i think it would be nice if we can make it work and have us run it (the archive technical side, not policy of it) 21:23:35 as paultag isn't here, we'll have to push dak multi-db to the next meeting 21:23:55 * ScottK <- nothing 21:24:04 no more business? 21:24:15 Ganneff: I would be fine with that, yes. It probably needs some more tools in dak (import from main archive), but that bit is something I am a bit interested for other reasons anyway. 21:24:20 #endmeeting
