I have no attachment to it personally, but the existing #fedora-desktop has it's own historical user set and it's on a different IRC server from the rest of the Fedora channels. > Another thing that makes it seem quiet is that we don't have regular > weekly meetings.

Christian suggested using more of a FESCo model, which would mean regular meetings (perhaps every-other week?) and possibly a trac instance to track work items. Originally we avoided this overhead because the intention was to "Get stuff done", but in hindsight that's lead to a lack of transparency and accountability. Unless there are major objections or helpful other suggestions, I'll work with the Fedora infrastructure team to get a trac instance setup and we can work out meetings shortly. (I hate trac, but there's no better solution that I'm aware of.) josh -- desktop mailing list desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop
