Guidelines for the council summaries

This is the result of reading (and improving) way too many horrible old 
council summaries [*]. I see it as recommendation for best practices, not 
really something we need a written-and-stamped-approved policy for. Anyway we 
should maybe talk about it once.

1] Anything that was decided by the council outside the logged council meeting 
within the last month (e.g. a vote on a bug) needs to be added to the summary 
with reference to the source. 

2] A link to the meeting agenda on archives.gentoo.org should be included in 
the log and/or summary.

3] Agendas and similar documents should be posted to the mailing list(s) as 
part of the main e-mail body, not as attachment (since the attachments are not 
shown on archives.gentoo.org).

4] Referenced documents (e.g. policy drafts available in somebody's devspace 
or on a pastebin) should be included in the log and/or summary (at the end). 
The only exception is texts available on archives.gentoo.org, in our VCSs or 
on our bugzilla.

5] If there was a formal vote, the summary should list voting results (x yes, 
y no, ...) and the exact wording that was voted on.

Anything else?

Cheers, Andreas
