Hi everyone,

I'm email gentoo-dev@ because I'm trying to hit up as many devs as possible. Hopefully you've seen the recent discussions about what to do with ppc/ppc64 given the low manpower. Let's get interested people meeting in #gentoo-powerpc on Monday Aug 4, 2014 @20:00 UTC. If there are no objections, I'll chair the first meeting so here's the agenda so far:

1. Let's reconstitute the team and elect a lead.

2. How should we address the low manpower issue. At least two solutions have been proposed so far: a. Drop of many stable keywords to ~arch while retaining a core of stable packages b. Skip stabilization requests and let the KEYWORDS revert from stable to ~ by attrition.

There may be other approaches. Both 2a and 2b have advantages/disadvantages and their technical problems.

Anything else?
