## Old Actions


## New Business

### LeePen
- (yeti) (Quoting #devuan-dev) 20200121-171651 LeePen | Wow: fixing
  #353 has fixed the sawfish build failure that yeti reported a few
  days ago!!!!! (/Quoting)  
  - Confirmed, THANKS! I could rebuild sawfish now which fixes the
    problem with sawfish-config not running on i386 which Debian has too
    but rebuilding on Debian already succeeded earlier. Now the
    remaining sawfish glitch(es) is(are) not specific to Devuan.

#### Backups
- Remote backup of backup to rrq's host enabled and running daily.
- Adding new/migrated hosts to backup system not straightforward as
KatolaZ's instructions use rssh. This is abandoned and no longer
available in beowulf. Testing alternative solutions with rbash
or sudo.

#### Beowulf
- Propose freeze on new packages and anything other than bugfixes after
tomcat9 is in. Waiting on successful testing from amesser.
- beowulf-proposed suite enabled for direct bugfix builds.

#### Update MATE from HezeH
- new packages will be released in the next days

#### Britney
- Installed and producing output at
https://pkgmaster.devuan.org/britney/

### rrq

### fsr

### mason
- Still working on netboot stuff.
  - booted netinstall ISO
  - booted nfs-root environment
  - to do/in progress: building netinst
- to offer:
  - 4710 binary in place of sudo
    - user execution based on group membership
  - remote shell for back-ups
- wishlist - identify choice of virtual terminal that gets
  shutdown messages
  - running X, on shutdown we switch to terminal 1, but useful output
    still goes to 6, where X was

### golinux
- Something I can't quite remember
- TDE for Devuan?
- https://www.trinitydesktop.org/
- installs to /opt - port/migrate to /usr
- I need screenies for the iso docs and visual install guides asap. It
will be too much to do when crunch time comes


## New Actions
- Release Notes - fsr
- Beowulf 3.0.0 RC for Valentine's please?
- (gl) test if website builds properly since migration.
- (rrq) implement solution for migrating VM with external IP
