New proposal, again with a small graphic attached:
- FESCo and the Core Cabal (f13 and notting [jeremy is a member of FESCO
already]) become FTC -- Fedora Technical Committee (the final name still
needs to be discussed, there are some alternatives floating around).
That makes 15 Members for now.
- the FTC sits below the Board and handles all the day to day work and
the details around the packages and the releases; some of that work get
delegated to be done by SIGs (Extras has some already that simply
continue to exist; further create SIGs [even if that means only one or
two people] for each Spin). Big or long term decisions (roadmaps for
example) get worked out together by the FTC and the Board.
- Those four members that are in the Packaging Committee and in FESCo
now will represent the Packaging Committee in FTC, too. The Packaging
Committee at the same time becomes a SIG. It will work as before;
similar how FESCo and the Core Cabal had veto power it's now FTC that
can block decisions.
- the FTC will run with a similar scheme how FESCo ran until now (e.g.
in the open, public meetings, ...)
- the FTC in the current form has a lifespan until six weeks after F7
was released. The FTC until then has to work out a plan how FTC will be
constituted after that (e.g. size, seats [some elected, other
appointed?], fixed level of community/red hat members, ...) together
with the Board.
Comments?
I see the FTC as 3 different groups:
Technical 'vision' aspects of fedora (Like Gnome being our default wm)
Packaging (Our packaging guys rock BTW)
Technical Integration (More on the dev side)
I see these entities as being and acting differently and independently
of each other, especially for day to day things. It might be worth it
to make them somewhat mutually exclusive, not allowing any one
individual to be in all 3.
Though in its "6 weeks after F7" form I think this proposal looks
great. Lets see how it goes and start discussion after F7 is
released.
