Re: https://fedorahosted.org/fesco/ticket/65 Thanks to Jon for capturing the Board notes into that ticket. I meant to respond to FESCo by Wednesday but failed. You can find the Board meeting log here for more information: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Board/Meetings/2009-03-03 It seemed like a little over half of the Board was interested in the idea and generally positive about it, but was unsure of the parameters for a project to which trademark approval would apply. A couple -1 votes were also captured before the Board generally agreed they needed more data for an informed decision. I think the best way to move forward would be for the originator to write a proposal that clarifies at least the following, to address some of the questions raised in the Board meeting: * Why a repo and not a cross-distro tool? * Would we be creating an issue for CC originators who lose traffic to a Fedora-specific content container? If so, how do we mitigate it? I'm cc'ing the fedora-advisory-board list and setting followups to go there.
CC'ing Steve, a friend of mine who brought this to fedora-packaging list which resulted in all these discussion. Steve, you might want to add your thoughts on why you wanted a repository.
