Revisit Motion 4 from last week

Motion 4 from last week in regard to Q2: distro endorsement v. neutrality

As discussed in email after last week's meeting:

MOTION 1: Q2: Sugar Labs encourages all GNU/Linux distributions to package and distribute Sugar, and if possible will assist with hosting and infrastructure. SL Marketing may strategically decide to focus resources towards specific distributions in the interest of promoting Sugar more effectively.

Motion passes (7 for; 0 against)

Resolve outstanding Sugar on a Stick decision (Q3)

SoaS DP Q3: SoaS name

MOTION 2: Yes, "Sugar on a Stick" should be reserved by Sugar Labs for use by the SoaS-Fedora distribution so that Sugar can be marketed effectively, until such time when a trademark policy, agreement, and process is put in place: SoaS will be the first project to go through that process.

Voted on in email

Motion passes (5 for; 2 votes not yet tallied)

Further discussion of policy for using Sugar trademark

Lots of good discussion and we are close to some motions. To be continued.

(One topic that needs more fleshing out is the definition of "substantially unmodified" and its counterpart, "modified".)

Guidelines re transactions with the SFC

Walter pointed to Sugar_Labs/Governance/Transactions but we did not discuss the guidelines. To be continued.

Infrastructure proposal

We did not discuss Bernie's infrastructure proposal.
