A cross functional team of people will meet and discuss current problems with the Fedora Development Cycle and discuss potential changes to the cycle to solve the problems.
A small number of specific contributors will be funded and brought into this event. Funding for FAD events is very limited so that many events can be held each quarter. All Fedora contributors are welcome to sit in, particularly those greatly impacted by changes to the Fedora Development Cycle.
