    1. Allan: good progress has been made on the federa-workstation repos on install media issue (#??) (aday, 13:07:46)
    2. Kalev: OpenH264 (#84) - the f32 beta has the cross-repo recommends now; this revealed a DNF issue (needed to be fixed anyway) (aday, 13:07:48)

  4. Previous action items for thermald (#71) (aday, 13:07:57)
    1. cmurf to start a discussion on 01.org: not done but in queue (aday, 13:07:59)
    2. There is a change proposal from Ben, which the WG said no to last week, because it depends on non-free software (aday, 13:08:18)
    3. No volunteers to start the devel@ thread; cmurf will do it if no one else steps up (aday, 13:08:21)

  5. Previous action items for automatically adding new packages when upgrading (aday, 13:08:23)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1814306 (aday, 13:08:25)
    2. cmurf filed the DNF bug, although it turns out that it's actually not a bug (aday, 13:08:27)
    3. This seems to be an architectural issue with DNF. It's unclear whether the issue will get fixed. We might need to work around it. (aday, 13:08:34)
    4. ACTION: Neal and Kalev to help Chris come up with a workaround for the issue, to ensure that earlyoom gets installed on F32 (aday, 13:08:44)
    5. ACTION: Neal and Kalev to work out a more generic solution for F33; it will likely require some policy work (aday, 13:08:50)

  6. Reconsider updates policy (aday, 13:08:53)
