These will become part of the **public and permanent record of everyone involved. Everything said will be archived + searchable forever.**\r\n\r\nI for one do not want hangouts around which could be used against any member of the ipfs community in the future (suppose we discuss censorship resistance and someone from china participates and says something not very acceptable to the censors there...).\r\n\r\n---\r\n\r\nThere is also the question of presentation to the viewers-- archival for our own purposes is different from broadcast + archival for interested viewers. i would think that _if_ we're going to have the downsides of a public broadcast/archive then we should have the upsides too, namely, a good source of information for viewers who would like to explore and join our community. If so, then we should:\r\n\r\n- be much more efficient with our use of time. (today's infra hangout was >7min of banter as people waited)\r\n- be much more precise + professional\r\n- come up with a policy of what is \"not ok\" to discuss on air. i want to still be able to accept _anybody_ who wants to come in + discuss things, but if so then we also need a way of handling trolls or undesirable situations. these will come up (have already happened to me in live recording)\r\n- make sure every participant is aware of this policy before they join the hangout\r\n- announce at the beginning of every hangout that these are being recorded.\r\n- so far we've been using the hangouts as a way to \"hang out\" as well, as a regular face-to-face time. If we're going to record + archive these though, i think we'll have to separate this out.\r\n"}}
