I remember people getting confused and talking about how the council
wants to "Moving all gentoo channels to oftc" however, that was
clarified. "having a secret channel for meetings on oftc" seems to be
similar in confusion. Allow me to clarify this as well:
Your statement mixes two meanings of the word "meeting" which causes confusion:
a) Council meetings
b) A (random?) group of people
The former needs to be announced, and happen in public. The latter can
happen anywhere. Surely we can't say gentoo council members are
holding a "meeting" if they happen to meet at a FOSS conference
somewhere? ;)
Besides, as I understand it:
1) The channel was a public channel on oftc where (some of?) the
gentoo council members idled because one of the council members could
not come onto FreeNode due to personal reasons.
2) Council Meetings were held on #gentoo-council @ FreeNode, with a
proxy for said council member who could not connect to FreeNode.
3) Then the issue of "meetings with musikc" -- my vote goes for *not*
counting /query as a "meeting" ;)

I thought the reason for the meeting was an appeal for retirement done
by devrel? Sort of like going to a higher court for an appeal?
