Meeting closed at around 21:20.
Samson has received confidential complaints about Sugar Labs;
* we are unsafe, rude, and don't want to listen,
* we don't take our vision seriously,
We discussed;
* who we are,
* this is an important issue,
* why people would tell Samson,
* newcomers can think their ideas are wonderful,
* hasty replies are seen as rude and brief, yet careful replies are seen as rude and condescending,
* the complaint can be a criticism of the power we have in the meritocracy, (or a failure to engage in the meritocracy),
* possibility of anonymous suggestion box, or survey, but this risks further trolling, and how asking questions about a problem makes a problem larger,
* need to accommodate new and veteran contributors, ... let them make mistakes and learn,
* we are all very pressured time-wise, it is so boring to repeat the same advice over and over,
* we might ask our Ombudsman to investigate,
* we have a welcome to Sugar Labs checklist, (lists the skills and achievements to attain),
* private complaints should be public so the community can react,
* use more empathy,
* the assisting mentor issue; a perception of non-inclusiveness, caused by using wrong forum, a code of conduct issue.
We did not make a decision.
