I think some people are blowing things out of proportion here. Times have |
| 2 |
been more chaotic in the distant past than what we have going on now at |
| 3 |
least in my 10 years with gentoo, but i gather that things are getting a |
| 4 |
little heated here. |

Maybe its time to expand dev-rel's authority, such as applying some basic |
| 7 |
rules to all the devs. Not saying people are doing these things but rules |
| 8 |
like no cursing in official communiqué, no personal attacks, promises to |
| 9 |
obey the decisions of the dev-rel arbitration. And perhaps give dev-rel |
| 10 |
some ability to punnish the devs, suspending their privlidges or whatnot |
| 11 |
for breaking the simple rules. |

Mostly there shouldnt be this endless bickering. If two maintainers cant |
| 14 |
agree instead of an endless fight, they should just acknowledge that things |
| 15 |
have reached an impass go to dev-rel and let them decide what is to happen, |
| 16 |
maybe let them appeal to the lead of dev-rel and after that send an |
| 17 |
official appeal to the council. But there is really no need for this |
| 18 |
endless arguing about such small things. |
