This is draft following conclusions meeting from today (someone correct me if
i'm wrong):
- permanent BS modification is postponed until after release, so for now we
will have temporary solution
- mdv "policy" will be chosen temporarily to decide wether to enable patented
options go into tainted or core (plf stuff would go to tainted); a strict
policy will be made later on
- BS will be adapted to change distsuffix to a temporary one that will be
higher in version than mga
- submission to tainted will be done by adding '--define section=tainted' to
mgarepo (wait until BS is fixed, and bother sysadmin until "fixed" :-P )
- some packages don't have all codecs enabled atm
if i've forgotten anything, or i say incorrectness, please correct me...
