17 Alone you cannot do anything. Still I found that there are some parts
18 unspecified like how many meetings and how a meeting has to be announced
19 to be considered official that should be clarified.

29 Trustees manage a local entity located in the USA, the council should
30 manage Gentoo as whole. Can they work together to improve Gentoo? Well
31 EVERY developer and to a minor degree every member of the Gentoo
32 community should work together to improve Gentoo, usually do what's
33 within their role. The foundation has to make sure our intellectual
34 property won't get abused in the USA, has to defend our trademark and
35 cope with the bureaucracy related. The Council has to forster activities
36 within Gentoo, to solve deadlocks in discussions by having the last say.

38 My old manifesto is still valid =)
