Hi all,

Thanks all for joining!

Kaviraj: my apologies -- when someone new joins we do a round of
introductions at the beginning of the meeting, but this time we did it
at the end (but you had already left). If you join next meeting, I
will make sure we do the introductions first! :-)

Updated schedule:

 - We are still targeting the 5th for the RFC. We can delay a week if
we feel it is needed.

 - We will be adding a few things to the RFC:
   + Some of the PRs in the queue.
   + ppc64le support.
   + Binder & a couple rust/kernel/ pieces for it.
     * This does not necessarily mean Binder will go in the merge
window -- it is more to show in the RFC how an actual working module
looks like.
   + Move/split of "Rust example".
   + Kernel docs to be uploaded.
   + Unstable feature list to be updated.

Other topics & news discussed:

 - Wedson joined as a maintainer!

 - RFC:
   + The patches' split (preparation, Rust support, Binder).
   + Attribution, git-blame, kernel process, etc.

 - `alloc`:
   + We will likely end up with our own equivalent in the kernel, but
this is medium-term. For the RFC and likely for the merge, we go with
`alloc`.
   + Ideally, this work could inform the Rust allocator WG!

 - Locking: enforcing correct order/patterns (or at least disallowing
known-incorrect ones) via the type system or extra annotations.

Cheers,
Miguel
