Summaries from the meetings get post to the list. But Core is still a black hole. No public meetings. No real discussion, things just happen and even I'm sometimes wondering how/when some things got decided. No real informations what is happening and what's planed, only some small things get to the public. No influence from the Community. In other words: Maybe it's time for a "Fedora Core Steering Committee" that operates similar to FESCo? E.g. regular and public IRC meetings (where things like this RPM sage can be brought up and discussed), Meeting summaries, discussions on a public list (maybe it needs to be operate similar to FAB, e.g. invite only and a readonly archive for the public?) ...? It would be okay for me if only Red Hat people are on the "Fedora Core Steering Committee" for now until Extras and Core get closer together, but such a Committee would be start into the right direction IMHO. Just my 2 cent. And yes, I suspect some Core developers won't like that idea very much because it's probably a lot more operation overhead...
