    9. Feature Btrfs snapshots support for root filesystem: approved, but no assigned contributor yet (Akien, 21:11:05)
    10. Feature Improve installer navigation: rejected for Mageia 6 (too much work and too late), but could be considered later on if some initial work is done on mockups (Akien, 21:11:56)
    11. Feature Migrate To Network Manager: pending, depends on estimation by core devs of how much work it entails (Akien, 21:18:50)
    12. https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Feature:Offer_Tainted_repos_during_installation (ennael, 21:19:04)
    13. https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Feature:Packages_Used_Register (ennael, 21:31:38)
    14. Feature Offer Tainted repos during installation: pending, needs a better explanation in Simple English (Akien, 21:32:41)
    15. http://popcon.debian.org/ (Akien, 21:38:01)
    16. Feature Packages_Used_Register: pending, would be ok if opt-in, but using mirrorbrain or mirrormanager2 might be a better solution overall (Akien, 21:44:20)
    17. https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Feature:Parental_and_time_controls (ennael, 21:44:20)
    18. Parental and time controls: accepted (Akien, 21:47:04)

    21. Feature Simplified installation: rejected, that's just not doable. Other distros have attempted that and it was a complete failure. (Akien, 21:52:31)
    22. Feature Urpmi redirects if local mirror unavailable: pending, nothing against it a priori, but it depends whether some devs want to actually implement that + mirrorbrain might solve this automagically. (Akien, 22:01:38)
    23. https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Feature:Use_mdadm_for_raid_devices (ennael, 22:02:04)
    24. https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Feature:UiAbstraction4mcc (ennael, 22:08:07)
    25. Feature Use mdadm for raid devices: accepted, but to be checked with tmb's plans (Akien, 22:08:34)
    26. UiAbstraction4mcc will be a long term feature for mga7, including some look'n feel improvments (ennael, 22:26:25)
