New Agenda Items
- JL/DH: CEP 10 vote
- has not reached quorum
- backwards compatible, except if you need cache headers stored in-band in repodata.json
- FF: Should this be a CEP?
- JL: We need to get to a better place. When we create a new standard that affects multiple components we need to write it down and discuss.
- WV: Yes
- DH: No one knows what to expect from the process.
- JL: Unspecced (un-spec-ed) standards need to be addressed.
- WV: File name changes.
- DH: the way forward is a dump cache command/API
- JL: Could we use an "exeprimental/laboratory" label to this. Would that help us get our feet wet with this.
- DH: This would be beind a flag in the first release.
- WV: Pretty close to supporting this.
- WV: Does conda and mamba want to share disk cache?
- JL: If it's a standard, it could be done.
- DH: would rather have export cache function.
- JL: Not in favor of two cache formats.
- DH: Feels empowered enough to move forward. Will likely add a flag.
- JK: Would it be good to create a subteam to handle things like this, that are beyond the technical knowledge of most Steering Council members.
- JL: Steering Council still has power, but can delegate that power when it choses to.
- JL/JK: Determining scope of subteams is a challenge.
- FF: We need to abstract some layers of votes.
- JL: Might need to update governance to support this type of voting.
- DPC: Conda Space in Element created, but not yet advertised. Looking for early feedback and for fellow space admins.
- DPC: What sites should be in a pan-conda web search?
- JK: NumFOCUS agreement status?
- DPC: Anaconda legal is reviewing (because I wan't trademark assignment to go smoothly, when we get there). I am meeting with them tomorrow. We'll see.
