schestowitz | themadhatter: ages ago, how did you know? | May 22 13:58 |
themadhatter | I was going to use you for something, looked, and you weren't there. | May 22 13:59 |
schestowitz | use me? :-) | May 22 14:00 |
themadhatter | Yeah. Can't explain, at least not in public. | May 22 14:01 |
schestowitz | Someone had me join around 2006 | May 22 14:01 |
themadhatter | You know that I front for a variety of SIG | May 22 14:03 |
themadhatter | I was attempting to explain some of the Microsoft background for one of them, and decided that it would have been easier to get you to do it. You know the names and dates a lot better than I do. It also would have been more believeable coming from a third party. | May 22 14:06 |
schestowitz | SIG is? | May 22 14:06 |
themadhatter | Special Interest Group. | May 22 14:06 |
schestowitz | of what nature? | May 22 14:06 |
themadhatter | Um, I can't say. If you were on FB I would have invited you into the discussion area. These people are somewhat, nervous, I think is the best word. They really do not want it know that they are discussing what they are duscussing with each other. It could cause major problems. | May 22 14:08 |
themadhatter | Did you know that you could set up Invisible discussion areas on Facebook? | May 22 14:09 |
schestowitz | I think you're teasing | May 22 14:09 |
themadhatter | Yes I am. | May 22 14:09 |
schestowitz | And why would anything do something dubious in a public forum like Facebook | May 22 14:09 |
schestowitz | Microsoft gets copies of facebook's data, you know? | May 22 14:09 |
schestowitz | SIG is connotative with lobbying | May 22 14:10 |
themadhatter | Microsoft isn't their concern. My concern is that there are things happening in their field which remind me of Pam Edstrom. | May 22 14:10 |
schestowitz | Oh, copyright wise? | May 22 14:11 |

TechrightsBot-sc | @Claes Wallin (éåèª ) (clacke)'s status on Sunday, 22-May-11 13:09:12 UTC - Identi.ca: @schestowitz I do believe when @mairin says that Fedora needs volunteers, that's representative of opinions in FP more than from RH mgmt. | May 22 14:12 |
schestowitz | What I was saying was, a conflict of interest arises | May 22 14:12 |
schestowitz | themadhatter: but in what area? | May 22 14:12 |
schestowitz | And why would I be of use in a discussion like that? | May 22 14:13 |
themadhatter | You know about Microsoft evangelism. I think that we are seeing something similar happening. And believe it or not, even if the weird evangelism stuff hadn't have come up, you were on the list of people to be invited into the group. I was surprised when I couldn't find you when I set it up. | May 22 14:15 |

themadhatter | No, but the people I'm talking to all use it, so at present we are stuck with it. | May 22 14:16 |
themadhatter | If you promise to check your email, I can send you a list of names, and give you the details of why the group exists. I just can't in IRC, it's too public, and the people I'm talking to have damned good reason to be cautious. | May 22 14:19 |
schestowitz | Well, if they use facebook, then they already lost their privacy :-) | May 22 14:22 |
themadhatter | To some extent. The companies that they are worried about are not likely to have access to Facebook's inner workings, unlike Microsoft. | May 22 14:32 |
themadhatter | BTW, I've just written a hatchet piece on our old buddy Ed Bot. | May 22 14:33 |
