IRC is an obvious fall-back, but it is definitely a lower resolution format than teleconference. IME, a rough estimate is that an IRC meeting can only address 30% of the material that you can cover in a voice call. This would reduce the amount of business that can be handled by ~16% month-over-month. Teleconferences also give room for going over the allotted time without bumping against someone else waiting to use the meeting channel; the Board calls occasionally go over 1 hour in order to fit in all business. One of the reasons I am excited about Fedora using VoIP for contributors is the increased amount of business that can be done while forming stronger social bonds. The risk is the increased difficulty in others listening in, participating, and catching up later for meetings. Resolving this better for Board calls should help everyone who uses teleconf for meetings. > > === Use of Fedora Name/Trademark === > > * What is required for a package or a project to carry the Fedora name? > > * Need to publish guidelines on wiki > > * OWNER: Max Spevack > > * ACTION: post proposal to fedora-advisory-board-list > > What about a relaxed trademark policy?
