## Old Business
- Still no fix for the javascript sticky bar?
- (Beer) I tried... Forked the project, sank some time trying
to figure out something. HTML & CSS I can manage; this compiled
language I am giving up on
## Old Actions
## New Business
### LeePen
- I think packages.d.o amprolla is stuck. Current processes
are from 5 April. Evilham isn't on IRC at the moment.
- Fixed #422 with rrq and fsmithred. New live isos?
- fsmithred: is your live iso build system in git.d.o somewhere?
- (fsr) yes:
https://git.devuan.org/sdk/live-sdk
- Alpha version of unified Jenkins build pipeline ready for testing:
https://jenkins.devuan.dev/job/devuan-package-builder/. Any comments?
- ltsp for ceres/chimaera: latest upstream version depends on systemd.
I propose to fork and see if it is salvagable. If not reinstate
version 5 from beowulf.
### rrq
- (fsr) choose-mirror does not let you enter custom
### golinux
- With fsr updated the derivatives list on d1g and d.o
- Added Virage and GobMis to the derivatives list.
- Discuss stanz' email about adding derivative docs. He put his here but
probably better in a section of a wiki?
https://git.devuan.org/stanz/mini-mimo/wikis/home
- New git registrant Lucas Ramage left this issue note.
https://git.devuan.org/devuan-doc/documentation/issues/51
Seems an odd first contact.
- Request for blu-ray iso legit?
- (plasma) I'm not opposed to the idea, but I'm not going to make it.
Contributions are welcome.
### mason
- TWiki pros:
- File-based, so easily integrated into version control, but also
offering online editing for those who want it. (Not everyone needs
git access.)
- No PHP!
- ACLs and fine-grained access control
- TWiki Goals:
- Potential base for Devuan web site.
- Should be able to include current styling largely unmodified.
- (gl) But needs a complete rewrite of the css to jettison
the cruft.
- Should ease the burden of maintenance.
- Should contribute to task-sharing by making documenting processes
iterative and easy to flesh out over multiple passes. (Those who
can do a thing do it, document it, and then other folks can
approach and improve the docs, filling in things only a newcomer
can see, ad infinitum.)
- User pages, both for their own sake and as a staging ground for
formal docs.
- Derivative distribution pages
- (gl) That was my thinking also.
- Timestamps for freshness and potential automation for flagging pages
that should be vetted for bitrot.
### plasma41
- Editing fsr's latest additions to the release notes.
## New Actions
