Indeed, I see it differently. If I seriously want to discuss cooperation and 
product alignment with another group, then I refrain from making any major 
changes beforehand, unless an emergency arises. This applies all the more to 
matters that are known to be controversial and that increase existing 
differences.

 Just as an info about our recent cloud coop discussion Fedora Cloud had had a 
meeting yesterday .... 
17:56:07 <pboyHB> And we can feel honored: As Dusty put it: „the server WG has 
approached us again about possible collaboration/merging. There seems to be 
more interest this time.“

7:45:52 <michel_slm> "so... last week it's apparent the Cloud WG knows we want 
to reach out. should we start engaging more formally? e.g. start a thread in 
our mailing lists?“   :-)
and the follow up.

very nicely put. According to Matthew and others cloud wg did virtually not 
exist for more than a year, no meetings, silence on mailing list beyond 
bi-weekly announcement of a „standing“ meeting nobody attended to, there was 
discussion to „kill“ it, great reluctance on the side of Dusty in our meeting 
March 3 to make any changes on the artefacts at all, new start of 2-weekly 
meetings March 30, „months of conversation“ which spell down to 4 meetings in 2 
months, and then such a very fundamental change. Well, the wording may be a bit 
offhand, but by no means farfetched.

And lest there be any misconception, Cloud WG may decide what or about what 
they deem useful. That is not my business. But regarding the planned discussion 
about cooperation and alignment of server and Cloud WG and artifacts, I am "not 
amused" and can't really take it seriously anymore. There are more serious and 
urgent tasks waiting for us.
