Accepted unanimously.

Deprecate EAPI 6

- Motion: Deprecate EAPI 6.
Accepted unanimously.
Update policy for banning EAPIs / ban EAPI 5
--------------------------------------------
The council discussed changing whether the procedure for deprecating
an EAPI should be changed.

no intermediate step between deprecation and complete removal of EAPI.
Accepted with 5 yes votes and 2 no votes.
[Note: This motion has been retracted, see Open floor below.]

The proposals from the mailing list on re-aligning IRC nicks with
Gentoo UIDs were discussed.
- Motion: Kindly request developers update their gentooIM entries in
LDAP with their regular nicks.
Accepted unanimously.
- Motion: Ask infra to investigate exposing gentooIM (or a new field,
e.g. gentooIMpublic) while exploring privacy on this page:
https://www.gentoo.org/inside-gentoo/developers/. No mandatory action.
Rejected with 3 yes votes and 4 no votes.
No council member supported any of the motions in rich0's mailing list
posting [4], therefore no vote was taken on them.

from the currently listed entity has been obtained.
- Action: ulm will ask robbat2 to obtain that feedback in detail, and
will report back next month.
Open bugs with council participation
====================================
- Bug 736760 "Application to Software Freedom Conservancy":
Progress on this is tracked on a Foundation wiki page [7].

Already covered in separate agenda item above.
Open floor
==========
- Motion: Retract the previous vote on "The EAPI deprecation workflow
is simplified so that there is no intermediate step between
deprecation and complete removal of EAPI."
Accepted with 6 yes votes, 0 no votes, and 1 abstention.
Marecki asks for an official statement about what can be guaranteed
for unstable architectures, especially in the context of mass dropping
of keywords. The general opinion is that this should be discussed on
the mailing list first.
