Point of information.
What is the process right now by which SIGs are created that spells out exactly when a SIG is able to establish an identity with a FAS group? Is it because they need particular infra access?
Could I just create a Fedora Curling SIG today and get a FAS group today for it? I’ve done the groundwork.. I know there are enough people to create an international Fedora curling team with Fedora branded curling jackets as an outreach effort. I could probably have a 40 person group this week on a wiki page no problem. But what’s the process that gates getting an associated fas account?
The point being, I have deep concerns about tying voting rights to arbitrary FAS groups because there doesn’t seem to be any rhyme or reason to how and when FAS groups are created and removed.
How many SIGs right now are in fact just ghost fas groups and are effectively non-functional with no attachment points for onboarding new contributors?
If you want to tie voting strongly with SIGs, then we need to have SIGs being functional self-governing groups.. and not what they laissez-faire structures as the exist right now.
