Background
- Both boards met in a joint session to discuss the future of FESCo
- Meeting called as a result of FESCo's query to the board as to what its purpose is

Proposed Approach
Possible Role of FESCo
- Software in Fedora--"if you affect the distro"
- Features
- Oversight of SIGs
- No common agreement on this
SIGS
- Example of a SIG: KDE, Robotics, Astronomy, Python, $LANG
- Not a SIG: Artwork, Ambassadors, Infrastructure
- No Governance Model
- Outreach-Oriented Groups
- Nuts & Bolts Tech-Oriented
