Re: [TCLCORE] TCT/TIP reform

[Steve L. <st...@di...>]

That is a discussion worth having,  and is actually what prompted me to say "With that change will come inevitable pressures to change policy and procedures but those can be dealt with in time.”  It didn’t take long :)

Personally I don’t feel it is as simple as you have put it.  There are many discussions on the Fossil forum about the pros, cons and alternatives to pull requests. They are worth reviewing.

However I see this as secondary to the question of having more people involved in decision making, albeit it may be a consequence (or not, depending on the views of those involved).

Thanks for sharing your views.
