CC repo

Re: https://fedorahosted.org/fesco/ticket/65

Thanks to Jon for capturing the Board notes into that ticket.  I meant
to respond to FESCo by Wednesday but failed.  You can find the Board
meeting log here for more information:

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Board/Meetings/2009-03-03

It seemed like a little over half of the Board was interested in the
idea and generally positive about it, but was unsure of the parameters
for a project to which trademark approval would apply.  A couple -1
votes were also captured before the Board generally agreed they needed
more data for an informed decision.

I think the best way to move forward would be for the originator to
write a proposal that clarifies at least the following, to address
some of the questions raised in the Board meeting:

* Why a repo and not a cross-distro tool?

* Would we be creating an issue for CC originators who lose traffic to
  a Fedora-specific content container?  If so, how do we mitigate it?

I'm cc'ing the fedora-advisory-board list and setting followups to go
there.
