We don't do IRC because of lack of voice or video. We do IRC because it scales to whomever wants to participate. Doing Fedora meetings in voice or video introduces limitations in the number of concurrent attendees, both as participants and lurkers. It also enforces some amount of order to the meeting itself. IRC also makes it extremely easy to provide exact logs of the discussions in addition to the minutes. So if we are going to replace that with voice/video, we need to make sure it scales to a very large number of people, we have someone doing their best to transcribe things, and we have recording capabilities so people can replay it if they cannot attend. josh -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
