### LeePen

#### bugs.devuan.org Enhancements:-
* Improve response time. You should now get a reply within 2 minutes.
* Add script to populate map of sources <=> binary packages.

#### Packaging
* New version of dbus in ceres to fix #635.
* Added src:sysvinit 3.00-1+devuan1 to chimaera-backports: it contains
the upstream fix for #633.

### bb|hcb

#### DNS round robin
* deb.rr.devuan.org prepared to replace deb.roundr.devuan.org
* some mirrors lack their IPv4 on the current list (why, should we fix
  it)
  * (onefang) those IPv4's are in the master list on pkgmaster, only
    missing them from the RR.  No idea why they are missing from the RR.
    * apt-panopticon will use the master list, and IP lookups.
* rr.devuan.org is a separate zone
  * easily deploy a different master
  * use minimum TTL
* TODO
  * script automation from apt-panopticon
    * (onefang) Working on getting apt-panopticon more reliable.  It's
      already generating a list of good IPs that passed all the tests.
  * get pkgmaster out of the list and put it back in case all mirrors go
    down
    * (onefang) Agreed, already on my TODO.

#### Renumbering of VMs
* many VMs have IPs from far hosts, renumber to the current host
* some VMs have default gw to far host, change to the current one
* IPv6 convention - last 4 octets match the IPv4 address
* it was observed that UDP, GRE and ICMP protocols are shaped in a
harsher way compared to TCP by the hosting provider (SyS); the goal is
to minimize the tunneled traffic

### onefang
* I gotta leave soon.

### jaromil
* just saying hi :^) while installing yet another chimaera caressing the
idea of a blog post about devuan, listing achievements and bragging
rights. anything that should be mentioned, filmed talks that can be
linked, posts on list to be linked, any other links etc. welcome
