I'm not against each group doing a summary, but as noted by Josh, sometimes the summaries are very repetitive ( ...still working on implemeting roles... etc)
List of proposed MLs to send this summary to: server@lists.fedoraproject.org desktop@lists.fedoraproject.org cloud@lists.fedoraproject.org env-and-stacks@lists.fedoraproject.org devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
This is turning into my new pet peeve. ;)
Cross posting to bunches of lists is not a good idea, IMHO.
- It means the person posting the summary has to be subscribed to every single list they are sending to.
- It means if anyone hits reply to all they have to be subscribed to every single list or deal with rejections/bounces/moderation.
I think the best thing would be to mail just one list: devel.
All right, I see the point, cross posting does not seem to be very useful, devel@ or meetingminutes@ seem to be more appropriate way.
However, that's actually what we do already and I feel like it does not work very well. People need to pay attention to catch the meeting minutes they care about and since there is no summary of what is happening beyond meetings (on the group's mailing list or even any place else), it is almost impossible to stay tuned for non-members.
Failing that, I think the best way we can do cross posting right now is for people to send seperate copies of an email to each list they want to post to, follow discussion on all those lists, and then do another sum up post if there's important feedback from only one list.
Just going back to the original idea -- my goal in the first place was to have a simple way for everybody who is interested in what working groups work on to learn about that quickly. Bringing this message to other groups directly was supposed to prevent people to forget staying tuned.

Comments, ideas or better solutions are welcome as usually, but I might be offline until Sunday, so do not expect any answers from me in that time :)
Fair enough.
