Fedora Talk Facilitator Cases

This page is intended to be a comprehensive list of all the things a Facilitator might want to do with FedoraTalk. A separate page holds things a regular User or Adminstrator might need to do. These use cases are developed as part of the FAD Fedora Talk 2009 game plan.

• If it is works today, there should be a link to a page explaining how to do it
• If it doesn't exist to day, there should be a link to an Ticket with a keyword of ftalk.
