New business:
- Stefano designed draft diagram of Fedora governance: https://docs.google.com/drawings/d/1ySFkm8TVRa0a_1NYHm6rwJ8hxA4h4RjBEeek1pOvvGM/edit.
- Stefano's rationale: "I decided to take a stab at visualizing the Fedora governance structure in something that doesn't look like a pyramid [1]. The idea behind this is to present a structure based on areas of influence and interaction, rather than a top-down, tiered hierarchy. I am convinced that this is not a pure PR exercise; our community and leadership groups are interactive, and aiming at being even more so, and we should present them as such."
- This subgroup should work on this after we've better described current roles & responsibilities
