It's too bad you didn't continue to show up for the rest of the meetings we had or else maybe you would have known that. The community doesn't need the likes of you, or me, or anyone else to dictate to them what should or shouldn't be done. It's basically run by consensus. So either accept it or don't I don't care. If you want a business to run, go establish one...cause this is not a business. It's an open source project. This isn't a place where one person or set of people govern others. Instead it is a community of volunteers who each choose when, where, and if they want to participate. It is unfortunate that some consider volunteer projects to be businesses where attendance is mandatory and expected. Instead Brian, Max, Brandon, and I prefer that people who wish to participate do so in an environment which is receptive. That is precisely what I mean by being proactive...but it also means that we can't badger people to participate. As for taking control...I did no such thing. I was the one who drafted and published the articles about turning over envolution management to the community...no one including you stepped up to the plate to do so. So don't give me that crap that I took over and left everyone else out. All I did Denver was suggest that official support sites pick a single person to monitor and particpate on this email list to keep abreast of development changes and issues. Thats all! Sounds to me like your trying to start a flame war or something. Zoom |
