In attendance:
SLOB members: walter, tomeu, cjb. SeanDaly, mchua, Canoeberry
A number of community members attended the meeting.
== Agenda ==
# SLOBs mailing list protocol
# Team mailing list
# SoaS DP report
# Trademark policy
=== SLOBs mailing list protocol ===
We passed a motion (6 yes, 1 not present):
'''MOTION:''' Close the slobs@ list to just SLOBs, move current slobs@ traffic to iaep@ with a [SLOBS] subject line tag where at all possible.
'''Action:''' Walter agreed to notify the community and update the slobs@ list.
=== Team mailing list ===
In Bernie's absence, we deferred this discussion until the next meeting.
=== SoaS DP report ===
We passed a motion (6 yes, 1 not present):
'''MOTION:''' Give a two-week deadline to the Soas DP
'''Action:''' Walter agreed to notify the DP
=== Trademark policy ===
We had a general discussion of trademark policy:
* Discussion of policy for using Sugar trademark
** At what point does a modified distribution no longer meet community standards?
** At what point does a modified distribution no longer become viable in terms of the community's ability to support it?
** Where is the line the community draws between what can be called Sugar and what can not be called Sugar?
** Is there a standard mechanism for modifying a Sugar distribution that would keep it within the bounds of community standards?
** What are the guidelines and procedures for arbitrating these questions?
