(Apparently people forgot to post in both places.) But yes, we are fairly behind in public posting of minutes. I'll try to make sure that the four missing sets of minutes (May 19, June 26, July 1, July 21) get posted within the next few days. In terms of this particular issue, however, there was no decision to relaunch the bounties. The particular way that the GNOME foundation should be working with Novell in this area will definitely be the top agenda item for our meeting next week. Regards, Owen
