Hi all, In Friday's SLOBs meeting, we approved the creation of a decision panel, with the following people eligible to join the panel:
Sebastian Dziallas Luke Faraone Martin Dengler Bill Bogstad Faisal Khan Benjamin M. Schwartz Samuel Klein Sean Daly Tabitha Roder Caryl Bigenho Daniel Drake Abhishek Indoria (If anyone else had volunteered but is missing from the list, the group is welcome to add them in too.) The approved scope for the Decision Panel is large. We decided to describe it as: """ Investigate the situation of how SoaS should be treated by Sugar Labs, and related questions, including answers to the following: * Should Sugar Labs be a GNU/Linux distributor, rather than just an upstream producing Sugar releases? * Should SL be neutral about distributions containing Sugar, and refuse to endorse one over another? * Should 'Sugar on a Stick' be a phrase that SL asks its community to avoid using unless they refer to the SoaS-Fedora distribution?" * Any other question the Decision Panel deems required to provide an answer to the original question: "Is the current SoaS going to be the primary way Sugar Labs distributes a Sugar-centric GNU/Linux distribution?" """ How the panel proceeds to organize themselves and answer these questions is entirely up to them. Once a report is ready, SLOBs will review it and vote on ratifying its suggestions. Thanks, - Chris, for SLOBs. -- Chris Ball <[email protected]> One Laptop Per Child _______________________________________________ IAEP -- It's An Education Project (not a laptop project!)
