Hello,
my name is Natale, and I write you here in order to ask you if Fedora
could be formally interested to join and sign the campaign "Public
Money Public Code" launched by FSFE [1], which aim is to promote and
support by the law the binomial between publicly funded software and
Free & Open Source software. [2]
Together with other supporting organisations [3], the FSFE is spreading this
concept through an open letter [4] to be signed by worldwide citizens,
addressed to their respective countries legislators.
At the moment, I don't see Fedora in that list [3], while there are
also distro like Debian and OpenSuse.
Do you think this initiative could be interesting also for Fedora and
Fedora People?
Operating systems are at the base of software development, joining
those folks for this particular aspect looks nice :)
What do you think about?
Thanks
Cheers,
Natale

Dear all,
You are kindly invited to the meeting:
Council (Open Floor) on 2017-10-25 from 09:00:00 to 10:00:00 US/Eastern
At fedora-meeting(a)irc.freenode.net
The meeting will be about:

Open Floor meetings happen every other week. They do not have a
preset agenda. Instead, we spend the first few minutes of the
meeting deciding what topics will be discussed. If
attendees — Council members and otherwise — have several topics
of general interest, the primary meeting chair (usually the FPL
or FCAIC) will put them in order, and after a certain amount of
time discussing the first, ask if it's time to move on.

Hello all,
After deep consideration, I am resigning from my Fedora Council position
early at the end of the Fedora 26 release cycle, opening a new Council
seat for a half-term in the next election.
I published a blog post that explains why I made this decision and what
happens in the next election.
https://blog.justinwflory.com/2017/10/resigning-fedora-council/
It was humbling to be elected to represent the community. I appreciate
the community's trust to elect me into this position and hope that I
have been able to fulfill that commitment despite resigning early.
Thanks everyone.

For this Election cycle [1] we are going to follow a new way how
Elections are organized. It is an outcome of a discussion on Council
level [2] trying to improve participation of the Fedora Community in
the election process.
Today we are starting collection of questions for Election
Questionnaire [3]. The collection period ends one week after the F27
Final GA date, which means there is a time at least to November 6th to
collect these questions.
For the beginning I have copied the questions from previous Election
cycle. Feel free to add more questions or modify the current questions
of the Questionnaire [3].
The full schedule of the Autumn Elections 2017 is available on the
Elections wiki page [4] and on the detailed schedule for F27 [5].

this helps keep important issues from slipping through the cracks.
