Description Arthur Zamarin archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2023-09-30 18:04:40 UTC
As continuation of the discussion on gentoo-dev ML [1], I've come to write the GLEP for standard package.mask format. I've managed to write close to a good draft, and am ready to send for further review, so would request a GLEP number.

Thank you ulm.

Pushed current draft as "glep-0084" branch, and the draft can be found at [1]. Please note that there is still a TODO for Reference Implementation, which will be done hopefully soon.

Comment 3 Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev 2024-06-22 06:47:10 UTC
Any progress here?

GLEP 28 says:

If a Draft GLEP is inactive for more than 60 days or an Accepted GLEP is inactive for more than six months, then it would be marked as "deferred" on the main GLEP page. Inactivity is defined simply as the GLEP author has not contacted the GLEP editors with either an update or a request to submit the GLEP for approval (in the case of a Draft GLEP) or a request that the GLEP be marked final (in the case of an Accepted GLEP).
