Welcome to Ubuntu Developer Summit!

Avoiding charm store bitrot...

automated testing

- Assign maintainers to charms (metadata.yaml)
- Failing tests for period of time.
  - autofiles bug (puts in the "Big List" to be unpromulgated)

Policy would be to not promote charm series until it's all green (i.e.,
no critical bugs)

Simplify writing tests:

make it easy for users to run their own tests... merge 'charm test' in
charm tools

WORK ITEMS:

[clint-fewbar] Maintainer idea was almost universally accepted: TODO
[negronjl] Promulgate should run "charm proof": TODO
[clint-fewbar] update charm tools to support maintainer
[clint-fewbar] assign maintainers to existing charms, everyone who committed to the charm pinged to see who will maintain it.
[clint-fewbar] Document orphan process.
