Hi Giannis,

thanks for following up on this. Is there any particular reason for
you to start a new thread? Just wondering, because I'd really love to
have my questions from the previous thread answered.

Glad to see you've eliminated option 4 to dissolve FAmSCo. What made
you change your mind?

Given these three options, I'd go for third.

Amen, I totally agree with you on this one. As far as I can see the
problem is not *using* the tools but *connecting* them, that's why we
are facing this split-brain situation atm: When I tried to catch up
lately, I found several tickets where a discussion on IRC had taken
place, but no note and no log was added to the ticket. On the other
hand I read meeting logs where the you linked to the ticket, but
nobody actually responded to the comment I had added to the ticket
earlier.

Whoever is in charge of hosting the meeting needs to make sure this
gets done right. The links need to go both ways.

I'm fine with lazy consensus, but I have a concern about the time
frame and a suggestions on how to collect voted. Please refer to
https://fedorahosted.org/famsco/ticket/390#comment:5 for details.

Best regards,
