### Standing items
* [ ] intros for new folks on the call
* [ ] open votes
### From previous meeting(s)
### Your __new__() agenda items
* [x] (MvN) vs2022 compiler support
* Initial stab at some pieces https://github.com/conda-forge/vc-feedstock/pull/46
* This is a new VC version
* Uses existing UCRT
* Would need to use the windows-2022 github actions image
* TODO: follow on to change the name of the runtime to vc_runtime
* TODO: will need patches for msys epoch for UCRT
* (CHL) For reference: [msys2 environments](https://www.msys2.org/docs/environments/) - pick your own compiler + libstdc++ + Windows runtime adventure
* https://www.msys2.org/docs/package-naming/
* (RG) "we need some version of mingw-w64 for SciPy 1.9.0 too, MSVC + gfortran will no longer work. we use an Rtools toolchain in CI now"
* [x] (JRG) How to rename a feedstock (not just the artifact): protocols, need for a full review, etc.
* [ ] Compromise resolution:
* Accept rename right away, but if there's a review, we accept it conditionally on good faith by making contributors agree to working on that. Create an issue in the new feedstock to track the outcome of the review.
* [x] (CHL) conda & friends sprint @ SciPy (announcement)
* [x] (CHL) How does conda-forge use channeldata.json?
* Only known use by c-f: counting # of package namespaces for "By the numbers" on the webpage; other uses deprecated
* TODO: CEP to deprecate & remove `--use-channeldata` from `conda-build`
* TODO: CEP to add run exports to `repodata.json`
* [ ] (MRB) libcfgraph
* it's breaking
* used for security purposes at this point
* [ ] (RG) [guidance on releasing on conda-forge first and on contributions from companies?](https://hackmd.io/Otpl7vXgTYC4mg-RNdTpYg?view)
* Long discussion: everyone who is interested will add comments to the HackMD, then Ralf will open a PR to add some guidance on this topic to the conda-forge docs.
* [ ] (WV) initial backfill on Github OCI mirror done :)
### Pushed to next meeting
### Active votes
### CFEPs
* [cfep-12](https://github.com/conda-forge/cfep/pull/23) Removing packages that violate the terms of the source package
* Stalled since May 26, 2020
* Active debate about moving to "broken" vs deleting from conda-forge channel
* Active vote, ends on 2020-03-11
* What were the results of the vote?
* Did we hear back from NumFOCUS? they did the legal seminar which is recorded
### TODOs
[2022-04-05](https://hackmd.io/CqkOlf0XQMOh23Wnmt9qTQ)
* TODO: Articulate suggested mechanism for "so you're thinking about taking a contract to work on conda-forge". tl;dr is you should work on a design doc with the impacted parties (or working groups, or interested folks) on the conda-forge side. Once you have agreement on the scope, delivery timeline, and anything that's needed from the conda-forge volunteer side, go ahead and sign that contract with your payer. if you don't do this first, you may encounter some difficulties finishing delivery of your contractual agreement with your payer.
