One thing we should consider proactively is a way to quickly and temporarily remove a feed from the planet if there is a massively offensive post (porn, a profanity-laden diatribe, stolen proprietary source code, or whatever). Is it prudent to have a kill-and-consider procedure in place, with the sincere hope that we'd never need to invoke it? (Trust me, I really don't want more policies, monitoring, or censorship in place, but perhaps we do need a way to react quickly if something crazy happens). -Chris _______________________________________________ advisory-board mailing list advisory-board@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/advisory-board
