**Topic (IRC channel operator priviliges):**

  * It is necessary that some active channel-op has co-GC (Group Coordinator) rights.
  * The channelops on #maemo-meeting are GeneralAntilles, Jaffa, jOERG_rw. It was suggested that co-GC rights should be granted to same people.
  * The current GC is Xfade, but he has been absent from IRC and not reachable by mail lately. Council needs to contact him to agree on the GC rights transfer.

**Topic (Discussion on Council writing an introductory letter to Jolla):**

  * It was suggested that the new Council should send an introduction to Jolla to present ourselves.
  * However it seems that Jolla has no need of Maemo and Maemo has no requirements from Jolla so this is not essential.
  * It was pointed out that HiFo has already written an open letter to Jolla earlier, and apart from general goodwill there is no real need of communication between the entities.

**Topic (Discussion on a place for Maemo e.V. related documents):**

  * There needs to be a common place to store e.V. bylaws, meeting minutes, blog posting and membership application forms and guides.
  * A wiki page is not optimal for this kind of information, better to have a subpage on Maemo.org hierarchy.
  * Win7Mac joined in and sent mail from GeneralAntilles, where he was able to get in contact with x-fade.
  * A new e-mail was set up with some more technical details and sent back to GeneralAntilles (to be forwarded to x-fade).

**Topic (Discussion on the change to Maemo landing-page):**

  * It is required that we replace the maemo.org starting-page after nokia signs off.
  * There are no other requirements or guidance what/how to do that, except "_once we proceed, Nokia will require you to replace the landing-page with a statement announcement for 3 months_", whatever that means?
  * There is still awful lot of stuff on Maemo.org that refers to Nokia and that needs to be corrected/removed.

  


**Action Items:**

  * N/A
