This is not the precedent. Authority has not been delegated. SLOBs is still making the decision: "'The Oversight Board will review and ratify Decision Panel [report]'" http://lists.sugarlabs.org/archive/sugar-devel/2009-September/019544.html The decision panel is going to be told what the question(s) it has to report on is...so let's not pat ourselves on the back on being decisive here. > Sugar Labs does not declare an official soas.

It seems broadly phrased if the former, contradictory if the latter. > [T]he meta [lessons] from this experience:) > > 1. [Trademark guidelines are overdue] > > 2. [project policy is overdue] > > 3. [soas and marketing teams can work together] All I see is a lot of unproductive reinforcement of 4. "let's talk a lot about tangential stuff to the detriment of letting SLOBs get on with answering the original question[1,2]".
