Would chatting with Spot on IRC count as going with Red Hat management, or just 2 community member talking together ? Because the outcome would be the same. But the The proposal was discussed IRL during Flock, the proposal was discussed here before[1] and got lot of feedback, the proposal was checked by Board[3] , by FESCO[2]. And I think this was in line with the discussion on the whole "product or platform" on the Board mailling list, who was started by the user base discussion initiated by Robyn [4].
