</I>>>><i> Hi there

</I>>>><i> Back online. We are planning our next meeting for 24th of august, 19h
</I>>>><i> UTC on #mageia-dev. In between we will work on some burning subjects
</I>>>><i> (backports incis meetiluded) so that we can take final decisions
</I>>>><i> during this meeting.
</I>>>><i>
</I>>>><i> As usual and as it's a long time we did not have any meeting, you can

</I>>>><i>
</I>>><i> Well, one thing that had bitten me twice is that with my ATI Radeon

</I>>><i> installed
</I>>><i> that package, and rebuilt the initrds, then the problems were
</I>>><i> solved. Still,
</I>>><i> it didn't look good at all.
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> Is this fact peculiar to the dual CD, and is better in the DVDs or do

</I>>><i> the next
</I>>><i> meeting.

</I>>><i> Regards,

</I>>><i> Shlomi Fish
</I>>><i>
</I>><i> I'd like to add another thing to the meeting topics:
</I>><i> The discussion about non-free / tainted, which lasted really long,
</I>><i> but AFAICS there is no concensus or decision, and the discussion
</I>><i> has effectively reached a standstill. My tries to get this going again
</I>><i> have not succeeded so far.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> For reference, have a look at those:
</I>><i> <A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/pipermail/mageia-dev/2011-July/006382.html">https://www.mageia.org/pipermail/mageia-dev/2011-July/006382.html</A>
</I>><i> <A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/pipermail/mageia-dev/2011-July/007001.html">https://www.mageia.org/pipermail/mageia-dev/2011-July/007001.html</A>
</I>><i>
</I>><i>
</I>><i> For some people the situation seems really clear, also to me,
</I>><i> this viewpoint is what tmb expressed in his mail:
</I>><i> <A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/pipermail/mageia-dev/2011-July/006560.html">https://www.mageia.org/pipermail/mageia-dev/2011-July/006560.html</A>
</I>><i>
</I>><i> But in the end we need a definitive decision.
</I>><i>
</I>In the last reference, tmb responded to my post by noting that the
original mirror policy put _all_ packages subject to patents or similar
restrictions in some countries in "tainted".
Since then, I have noticed that packages in non-free are tagged
"non-free" (in the file name), and almost all packages in "tainted" are
tagged "tainted".
So a simple solution, considering that the consensus is to keep a third
repository, is to tag all packages subject to both conditions as both
"non-free" and "tainted".
And leave them in the "tainted" repository.
We could even have a filter to avoid showing "non-free" items in the
"tainted" repo, for those so concerned.
In any case, if we put both tags for such packages, "non-free" would
always show up in the package name (under "revision" in rpmdrake).
BTW, I think it was an excellent idea to tag the packages with their
repo/classification, if not in "core".
(I still think we could have a better name than "tainted", since there
is nothing intrinsically wrong with the packages.)
