Suggested agenda/topics

Please list suggested discussion topics below and we will build a schedule at a later date. Please also suggest 'read-ahead' items as needed.

1. Packaging and distribution. For a few release cycles now, there have been Debian/Ubuntu packages (most recently for ns-3.17: http://packages.ubuntu.com/source/vivid/ns3).
   • What should we do to help downstream maintainers?
   • How to get bake/DCE into these?
   • How to allow such distributions to evolve?
   • What about Fedora/RHEL (which Vedran has raised in the past)?
   • What about distributing Docker containers and Live DVDs?
2. Documenting the maintenance status of our modules. We can do a better job documenting the scope and maintenance status (list of open bugs that users should be aware of) of our modules. Recent work on this regarding wifi could be extended to other modules-- need to discuss further with other maintainers.

Meeting Notes

Will be posted at a later date.
