		`+ # Agenda`
		`+`
		`+ * Previous minutes`
		`+ * https://blog.centos.org/2021/11/october-2021-board-meeting-minutes/`
		`+ * November meeting was skipped`
		`+`
		`+ * Board seat nominations`
		`+ * https://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-devel/2021-November/077422.html`
		`+ * 11 nominations`
		`+ * 7 accepted, with nomination statements`
		`+ * 2 declined`
		`+ * 2 never responded in any way`
		`+`
		`+ * Proposal for -extras on CS9 (Brian)`
		`+ * https://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-devel/2021-November/077417.html`
		`+ * Proposal: Remove extra red tape from process to get packages into -extras repo`
		`+ * SIG-like structure for the repo, with SIG chairs as members`
		`+ * Members could tag packages for release when they're ready`
		`+ * Will proceed unless there are objections expressed`
		`+ * What do we do about third-party repos like EPEL?`
		`+ * Need a policy drafted for this.`
		`+ * Policy on retiring unmaintained repos`
		`+ * Pat&Davide: document the process (and for SIGs) so they are well informed`
		`+ * Brian: yes`
		`+ * Tru : How do you resolve conflicts ?`
		`+ * Brian: just for -release packages so likely no conflicts`
		`+ * Tru: Concerned also about conflicts with third-party repos`
		`+ * Davide: would the infra SIG be a good parent organization?`
		`+ * Bex: reporting on how many releases are updating their repo defs (and what that means in context) might be a useful stat.`
		`+ * Davide: finding out how many folks are downstream consumers of a SIG Repo def could help identify a general number of users (which could be handy).`
		`+ * Move forward with the proposal and document it in the SIG Guide + above comments`
		`+`
		`+`
		`+ ### On going discussion`
		`+`
		`+ * Secure boot and SIGs (ie, issue #67 below)`
		`+ * SIGs want to ship content that needs to be signed`
		`+ * Signing with personal keys results in a terrible user experience`
		`+ * Options`
		`+ 1. Just use project key`
		`+ 2. Make a separate key for these artifacts, and get this added to the shim`
		`+ * Pat: preference for 2/ - separate volonteers effort`
		`+ * Brian: For the Infra, figure out a long term gov for people interacting with Microsoft. Trusted set of people to manage keys.`
		`+ * Davide: Could be centralized for all SIGs ? Does it need to be someone at RH ?`
		`+ * Bex: Board perspective on why having all the released signed by the same key could be a problem ? Safeguard at the SIG acceptance level ?`
		`+ * Neal : Delegate key that can be removed / Think about users perspective for booting things in an easy way`
		`+ * Understand how delegate key and shim can be done ? Brian is happy to follow up the different technical questions.`
		`+ * Bex : Write a detailed proposal and bring it to Red Hat.`
		`+ * Neal: There's a ticket for this (CS9 secureboot ?) - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2027505`
		`+ * Reasonnable to target CS9 only if need be.`
		`+`

		`+ * [#45](https://git.centos.org/centos/board/issue/45) CentOS variant artifacts (ISOs, disk images, etc.) branding`

		`+ * [#44](https://git.centos.org/centos/board/issue/44) Remove former Directors from various accounts and permissions`

		`+ * Are there specific actions we need to take here?`
		`+ * Mailing list, IRC channel, HackMD, mailing list ownership`
		`+ * Brian: create a ticket to Infra SIG when a board member goes.`
