I've not seen anyone complain about it being disruptive.

Does anyone here on the list feel that it's to disruptive?

The question is just what is the best channel to use.

In two recent meetings, we've had people pop up with questions about 18
Beta while the meeting is going on, and had to answer them mid-meeting
(confusing the meeting and polluting the logs) or direct them elsewhere,
neither of which is a great option.

I hardly qualify one guy as a measurement and from the looks of it it 
was his first time on the channel and we have people dropping into the 
meetings channel like that all the time.


Next anyone of us can just explain instead that we are in the middle of 
blocker bug meeting




The question is just what is the best channel to use.


I say we should stick to QA that's where is the most likely hood for 
more participation in the meetings.


Fedora bugzappers is a dead process and holding this in meeting-X does 
not make much sense either.

You felt the need to answer them instead of asking them to hold off all 
questions until after the meeting.


On last meeting I was about to do it myself on the last meeting but 
since you had started a dialog with him I decide not to.

I don't like the idea that people should be put on hold, probably for several 
hours, just because we are having a meeting. #fedora-qa is referenced from 
https://fedoraproject.org/en/get-prerelease . People arrive and ask, because we 
advise them to do so. They might not be willing or able to wait several hours. 
Some of them will have their issues unsolved and will feel disappointed. There 
are a lot of guys in #fedora-qa that would be able to help them, ourselves 
included (it's very doable to be holding a meeting in one channel and helping 
someone in another channel).

I personally feel very uneasy about rejecting/putting on hold all these guys 
just for the sake of our meeting. I think we can cope with the inconveniences 
(of e.g. a different channel) much better than the newcomers can.

Users that need help belong in Fedora and reporters that are at QA can 
just participate in the meeting while they wait

It was one guy why are you making so much deal out of this we have more 
users popping in regular meeting on our meeting channel than we have had 
all the times we have held the blocker meeting in QA ( and this is a 
record holding release in the frequency of holding those meetings )

# F18 Final Blocker Review meeting #2
# Date: 2012-12-05
# Time: 17:00 UTC (12:00 EST, 09:00 PST)
# Location: #fedora-bugzappers on irc.freenode.net

We're still working to get the proposed blocker list down to something
manageable, so it would be time for another blocker review meeting!
Note the IRC channel change - doing the blocker meeting in #fedora-qa
is far too disruptive to other testing work that goes on.

We'll be running through the final blockers and nice-to-haves. The
current list of blocker bugs is available at:
http://qa.fedoraproject.org/blockerbugs/current

Since there are quite a few proposed blockers yet, we'll be focusing on
the ones that I've already identified as needing discussion:
http://tflink.fedorapeople.org/blockerbugs/sorted/sortedBlockers.html#needs-discussion

We'll be reviewing the bugs to determine ...

1. Whether they meet the final release criteria [1] and should stay
 on the list
2. Whether they are getting the attention they need

[1] http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_18_Final_Release_Criteria

For guidance on Blocker and Nice-to-have (NTH) bugs, please refer to
 - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_blocker_bug_process
 - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_nth_bug_process
