2020-03-04 conda-forge core meeting

Attendees​

Agenda​

  • (ericdill) cfep-12

    • Need more conversation about moving to broken vs deleting
    • what does the license ID field mean?
    • had a long discussion at numfocus summit. we decided to not consult a lawyer. If someone asks us to remove the package then we have to, but if they dont they we are good as we are. We can consult a lawyer and figure out if this is ok
    • broken is not removal, but removing harms reproducibility
    • deleting the package is the safe approach without consulting a lawyer

  • (ericdill) cfep-13

  • (filipe) NumFOCUS point of contact person

    • Filipe to send out email/gitter to the conda-forge core team.
