+[[!meta title="Reproducible Builds: Weekly report #148"]]
+
+Here's what happened in the [Reproducible Builds](https://reproducible-builds.org) effort between Sunday February 18 and Saturday February 24 2018:
+
+ * Vagrant Cascadian [posted the minutes our recent logo IRC meeting](https://lists.reproducible-builds.org/pipermail/rb-general/2018-February/000800.html).
+ * Mattia Rizzolo [posted about our possible inclusion in this round of Outreachy/GSOC](https://lists.reproducible-builds.org/pipermail/rb-general/2018-February/000796.html).
+
+Reproducible work in other projects
+-----------------------------------
+
+There were a number of blog posts related to reproducible builds published this week:
+
+ * Russ Cox [wrote a blog post about Golang version packaging](https://research.swtch.com/vgo-intro) with respect to enabling to reproducible builds.
+ * Maria Camenzuli [posted about Reproducible Builds in Java](https://dzone.com/articles/reproducible-builds-in-java).
+ * Finally, Marc Scholten wrote a blog post entiled "[You Are Most Likely Misusing Docker](https://www.mpscholten.de/docker/2016/01/27/you-are-most-likely-misusing-docker.html)" which references reproducible builds.
+
+Development and fixes in key packages
+-------------------------------------
+
+Norbert Preining added calls to `dh_stripnondeterminism` to a number of [TexLive](https://www.tug.org/texlive/) packages which should let them become reproducible in Debian ([[!bug 886988]]).
+
