Announcements

• Final reminder for CEP votes #8 and #51
  • https://github.com/conda-incubator/ceps/pull/8 (10/14 so far)
  • https://github.com/conda-incubator/ceps/pull/51 (11/14 so far)
• NF-SDG for conda/schemas not accepted.
• (cpa) Labeled package downloads for cloned channels (conda_forge, bioconda, intel, nvidia, rapidsai, etc.) will be getting faster soon. Previously they were not being served from Cloudflare cache due to a config problem. This is a heads-up that the change should roll out this week / early next week.
  • Any labeled package wasn't cached before.
  • Now they will be.
• July conda and conda-build releases are out.
• "conda fetch" becomes "conda auth handler"
  • Pull request: https://github.com/conda/conda/pull/12911
  • New repository in conda-incubator: https://github.com/conda-incubator/conda-auth
  • Join the "fetch" team! 🙂

New Agenda Items

• (JK) CI on transferred repos requires permissions to run?
  • Example: https://github.com/conda/grayskull/pull/460
  • Can we relax the requirement?
  • JRG: We think only first time contributors are limited. Might be a bug in GitHub.
  • There is a spectrum of choices on GitHub
  • JRG: suggest putting a ticket on infrastructure?
  • JK: is this governance or infrastructure?
  • Start with infrastructure
  • JK: This is the first of many followup permissions issues.
• (JK) Update on license_url ETA?
  • https://github.com/conda/infrastructure/discussions/739
  • KK: This might be fixed?
  • RA: Let's look at this
  • JK: Can you update the issue with what you find.
• (JK) NumFOCUS Summit
  • John will go too!
  • Please share anything we should bring up at the summit
