Kevin,

Thanks for the luck.  We'll definitely need it, I don't see any of what I'm talking about to be easy. :)

On officiality, I also think an official relationship (I'm not sure what that means, but I took it as 'affiliation') with the Fedora project would be wise either given that we need to remain neutral if the intended service provided is mediation.  If we're under obligation to Fedora it will do exactly what you suggested:  It would be adding another layer and complicating things.

However, a friendly joint effort wouldn't.  Basically we just need to figure out how we can administrate our respective corners of the internet in a way that creates a little stable harmony with each other.  We'd like to see some penalty policies for operators and admins, etc, be able to provide support to users that otherwise wouldn't be getting that support from #fedora (we're trying it out with just IRC right now), and a good way to collect reports of abuse and to provide those reports meaningfully to you guys through effective channels.
You keep beating the "operator abuse" drum, but I am still at a loss as to any evidence of unresolved operator abuse. Perhaps the context of this discussion should be moved away from your personal experiences and be based on *actual* evidence of operator abuse? Or just leave it alone?

From my perspective I think very few changes in programs or policies would be needed to make that happen, this would probably be mostly an unofficial loose agreement and seeing where it goes.

Hey Matt.

First let me wish you luck with your group. More good support resources
are always a good thing.

That said, I'm not sure any kind of official relationship would be of
benefit. Another layer of mediation that is outside the project seems to
be like it would just be adding in another layer and complicating
things. Perhaps we could work to improve the processes in place already
in the irc-support-sig instead of trying to integrate a possible non
neutral third party into the process.

I look forward to hearing your (and anyone elses) ideas.

(The irc-support-sig meets on thrsdays at 17UTC in #fedora-meeting).
