You said: No vote forbidding A => A is not forbidden. This reasoning is not correct. > I wrote that it's not > forbidden, and that it's clear that existing projects are using it. Which projects? Maybe we need to point the board to them and ask them to report about how they conduct them. Personally, not being on the board myself, I'd weigh a few more things to judge a project's community than just if they do conf calls or not. But it would be interesting to have a look. > I respect your advice, but I am not going to dictate this to the podling > team. I'm happy to explain my PoV directly to the podling.
