Mel's concern (she can speak for herself, so this is my summary, ymmv) is that by taking discussions about community direction to one location, we allow people to stop discussing it in all the other locations. We take a step closer to community discussions being Somebody Else's Problem. I know what she means, and I hope we continue to have discussions of this nature all over the place. But I do know that over the years, I often have opinions, questions, and topics to discuss that aren't yet worth the mailing list(s) and have not IRC channel to work on. This is increasing for me as part of Red Hat's community leadership team. I don't have enough places to discuss the /practice/ of community leadership. So, #fedora-advisor-board is a +1 from me with a caveat that we all have to keep each other honest in making sure the conversation grows to and from there, and is not stuck there. - Karsten -- name: Karsten 'quaid' Wade, Sr. Community Gardener team: Red Hat Community Architecture uri: http://TheOpenSourceWay.org/wiki gpg: AD0E0C41
