Again:
Funding are handled by regions, there is an extensive discussion about it,
which goes out of the scope of Diversity team efforts. Please, direct your
complains about funding to the right thread.

I don't know if getting folks to join a group to help "sort things" had
enough interest. Let alone will it be like Videos? (As in a plan was made,
got feedback, got direction from advisors, workflow was done... Most of
those things are moot now, no attention is paid to these efforts folks
made.)

Justin as a member (would like Amita and Jona to join their names there as
well) however, in order to continue, we need to chose which structure would
fit us better. You can also read our meeting logs where we talked a bit
about it [1]
Fitting what? The Project? Diversity's Mission Statement? Where and what?
Assuming this means how to integrate diversity into Project (hoping that's
a goal.)
I am of opinion that funding is needed, or this is 'token effort' (sorry
for the pun) will basically be what we've had for years; the ability to do
outreach and/or inclusive events. And ask our local regions to fund them.
Money aside for a moment, we have given regions an extra task. I see
Diversity as able to teach/explain to our fellow Fedorans the what/why/how
of the noble effort.
Let me be clear- this effort IS noble. I support it. Despite no funding
and shades of Model Minority stuff, this effort is acknowledgement that we
have diverse communities to draw from. As well as Fedora being able to look
like the pluralities we live in. (Think of it as compatibility, that's a
good thing.)
