Re: Agenda: Verifiable Claims Briefing Call - Tuesday, January 5th 2016

I guess I was one of the lucky ones who got onto the call before the VOIP minutes payment problem (I laughed out loud when Manu pointed out the irony in that ;-)

From my POV, Manu and Dave did a great job, and the links they shared provided all the relevant background.

I particularly recommend reviewing the link Manu sent to the comments Brad Hill has already posted <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1aFAPObWUKEiSvPVqh9w1e6_L3iH4T08FQbJIOOlCvzU/edit?usp=sharing>. I think Brad's analysis goes to the heart of why similar efforts over the past decade have not succeeded—and pose the set of challenges that this effort must address if it is to be successful.

I can't join tomorrow's call but I look forward to the interview.

The IRC channel is not being used interactively, so no value in
participating there.

I tried to use the IRC channel but it seemed like my messages were
not being read by people. So why have it?

I read your comments in IRC. I think most people in the IRC channel
follow along with both the transcription and any comments that people
put in there, they may just not have had anything in particular to say
in response to what you said.

We also use the IRC channel to manage the queue -- (q+ puts you on the
queue to speak, q- removes you). Anything you say in IRC will be
included in the minutes unless you use `/me` to say it.
