The freshly elected Gentoo developer council held their first meeting last week. The results are top news in this week's Gentoo Weekly Newsletter, along with an invitation to the second European Gentoo developer conference planned for 18 November in Germany. A report from the Gentoo presence at last Saturday's open-source conference in Tokyo, and a tip useful for repeated monitoring of system events are included in this issue, as well as Bugzilla statistics and several important security announcements. Enjoy your GWN!
