Not sure how to do that under #ChathamHouseRule ™,particularly b/c @webmink seems wrong: Charter Member body doesn't appear to be disbanded

Bradley M. Kuhn Richard Fontana

@fontana, Of course, I can't help you since you can't tell me who they are. I wouldn't want to entice you to violate #ChathamHouseRule ™!

Bradley M. Kuhn Richard Fontana

@fontana, I know of a few other participants but not many (cf: #ChathamHouseRule ™), so I can't easily recruit such nominations. You could!

@fontana, #ChathamHouseRule ™ appears to clearly forbid revealing names of participants. Not your fault: poorly drafted rule w/out case law.

@bkuhn I've never heard it posited that #ChathamHouseRule signifies secrecy of *membership*. Cf http://ur1.ca/9ija2

Bradley M. Kuhn Free Software Foundation , Richard Fontana

@fontana, I can't see how #ChathamHouseRule ™ could *possibly* allow naming people who are on #ftf-legal in a public forum. Can you explain?

@fontana,re: #OSI "Charter Membership",a #ChathamHouseRule zone™:Invitation list was fait accompli when I was invited: no nomination process

@fontana,Indeed,my biggest issue w/ #ChathamHouseRule is interpretation difficulty;I believe firmly in complying w/ rules(eg: !GPL) cc @hook

@bkuhn Having done some research, I think adoption of #ChathamHouseRule represents liberalization of #FTF-Legal policy

Richard Fontana Free Software Foundation , Bradley M. Kuhn , Matija Šuklje

@bkuhn I don't currently read #ChathamHouseRule as that restrictive but one problem with it is difficulty of interpretation cc: @hook

@hook BTW you don't need #ChathamHouseRule to get lawyers discussing !fs legal issues. #OpenBar while it lasted proves that.

Richard Fontana Matija Šuklje

@hook I myself strongly disapprove of #ChathamHouseRule lists (such as that which existed for #Harmony) but I am willing to adhere to policy

Richard Fontana Bradley M. Kuhn , Matija Šuklje

@hook I don't read that as @bkuhn saying he refuses ever to adhere to #ChathamHouseRule for a list, just that he disapproves.

Bradley M. Kuhn Richard Fontana

@fontana, IMO the #ChathamHouseRule is an anti-transparency rule, designed to remove accountability & enable cabals. I find it revolting.
