+2010-10-26 Council meeting summary
+==================================
+
+All members present:
+	betelgeuse, chainsaw, ferringb, jmbsvicetto, halcyon, scarabeus, wired
+
+Agenda:
+	ferringb forgot to send meeting related mail, so there was no
+	announced agenda.
+
+Topics discussed:
+
+	la files
+	--------
+
+	The council decided that removing la files is the right thing to do,
+	but the whole thing will be taken to the -dev ML to allow devs to
+	express their opinions/objections, if any. Jorge will handle this.
+
+	The removal will only happen after portage-2.1.9 or later is
+	stabilized, since this is the first version that can fix la files
+	automatically.
+
+	At that time, a news item will be released to inform users on how to
+	fix any issues that may arise from the removal.
+
+	EAPI 4
+	------
+
+	few_ suggested finalizing EAPI 4 with the features currently
+	implemented in portage (bug #273620).
+
+	we agreed that this is a good idea, as long as a spec list is built
+	and PMS patches are written for all the features.
+
+	ferringb will write documentation for REQUIRED_USE.
+
+	the council will finalize things in the next meeting. people
+	responsible for EAPI 4 should be pinged beforehand so they can attend
+	that meeting.
