Hi all, I am glad we are having a conversation about this, this is an important subject.
Seems like there is some disagreement in how we want to deal with social media - CTR, guidelines, etc.. Why don't we have a vote to decide? That's what voting is there for anyways, right?:-) Also sounds like the password will be shared within the PMC so perhaps, a PMC vote makes more sense? I am not a member of the PMC so I won't start or cast a vote but will share my opinion as a member of the community. I really see no downside to having guidelines. In fact, that way, we will have something we can refer to both within the project and outside the project and it makes us more transparent as a community. It will be an iterative process but I think it will be a great first step. And, since Bruno seems to have some interest in that direction (correct me if I am wrong, Bruno), why not we request Bruno to put together some concrete set of guidelines that folks can vote on?
