We appointed a decision panel (by a vote of 3 for, 0 against, 1 abstain, 3 absent) with the following mandate:
:"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?"
Members of the Decision Panel are:
* 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
''We neglected to assign a date by which they are to report back. I recommend we give then 2 weeks. Will discuss via email.''
