Present TAC members:
- Joseph Myers
- David Edelsohn
- Siddhesh Poyarekar
- Carlos O'Donell

Agenda: 
- Discuss current status and updates. 
- glibc: Next steps for glibc. 
- Pick a time for regular monthly meetings

Notes:
 * Discussed the project name change from GTI to CTI 
   in order to support the more general scope of
   "Core Toolchain Infrastructure" which can support 
   the GNU Toolchain projects.
 * Discussed how to proceed with glibc as a project that 
   could move forward and use CTI services.
 * Siddhesh: We have significantly different workflow from 
   the kernel in terms of committers that have access to the 
   sources. Do we need to resolve that?
 * Carlos: I don't think we need to resolve this, but Konstantin's 
   comments are a concern about security, and it certainly needs improvement.
 * David: We don't want to change everything up front, but we eventually
   can address these issues.
 * Joseph: Should include the obsolete things in the discussion.
   The extra services that are identified should be listed.
 * Joseph: Checks in the git hooks are even more important when
   you have many committers vs just a few.
 * Joseph: There are still migration issues that need to be sorted out.
 * Carlos: AI for me is to put together list of services + legacy
   services to be migrated and start discussion on glibc libc-alpha list.
 * David: What is missing is that we need a focal point for the details 
   of the glibc transition. Do we have additional people that we can
   engage with to review the transition plan?
 * Carlos: Agree with David, we should explicitly call out that we're 
   looking for volunteers from the community to resolve specific details.
 * Carlos: Is a next step also to ask Konstantin for a status update on
   services used by glibc from CTI (LF IT)?
 * Carlos: AI to send email to Konstantin for a status update on glibc costs.
 * Discussed time slot preferences for meetings. Wednesday 11am EDT works.
   - Will review on list.
 * Discussed monthly meeting to carry status to all TAC members.
