+# Apr 24 2026
+
+## Attendees:
+* Not captured
+
+## Key decisions
+* We approved subprojects for the new podman github organization. See below for specifics.
+* Application for CNCF incubation should be presented to core maintainers *prior* to submission.
+* Paul Holzinger will represent core maintainers in any discussions that impact our CI.
+
+
+## Key discussions
+* Do all decisions have to be brought to this group? Consensus was "it depends"; some decisions are appropriate
+for github while others needs to be discussed.
+* We need external meetings for Podman and friends.  Unanimous agreement.
+* Which sub-projects make sense in the new podman github organization
+  * container-libs
+  * podman.io
+  * buildah.io
+  * go.podman.io
+  * machine-os
+  * podman-py
+
+  The container-selinux project was deferred.
+
+* Discussion around CNCF incubation and readiness.  We agreed that due to the impact of incubation, a
+majority (or more) of the core maintainers should be in agreement to move forward.  And preferably the
+core maintainers should have an opportunity to review it.
+* We discussed current state of CI for our repositories.  Due to the potential wide-ranging impact of
+changes to our CI with no involvement of maintainers, we want a maintainer to be part of those efforts
+in terms of design and approval of approaches and methods.
+* Core maintainer meeting frequency will now be monthly.
+* We need to review the MAINTAINERS.md file with regularity.  Brent will review Podman's, Miloslav will
+review Skopeo's, and Tom will review Buildahs.
