With only a few hours left to vote y'all might be wondering "What |
2 |
happened to Patrick's manifesto?" |
3 |
|
4 |
Short version - I'm not in the mood to write long speeches about things |
5 |
I won't manage to do. We have lots of technical issues to discuss and |
6 |
decide on (like the recent as-needed discussion, again, for about the |
7 |
3rd time since 2008). There's the social aspect - how do we want to |
8 |
interact with each other? Although I'm unsure how the council is the |
9 |
right place to solve personal issues. Etc. etc. |
10 |
Many things that need to get done, but which every one of you needs to |
11 |
present to the council. As far as I know we don't have telepaths around, |
12 |
so it's your job to remind us. |
13 |
|
14 |
And every single dev should vote. Or Else!!!1 |
15 |
The last years have had a rather low voter count. There's no reason for |
16 |
you to ignore such things, so use the last ~36h to voooote. |
17 |
|
18 |
I guess I'll just continue spending most of the time picking up |
19 |
unmaintained herds and reviving them, recruiting awesome new people and |
20 |
fixing stuff where I see breakage. Fixing one bug a day still sounds |
21 |
like a good challenge to every dev (and everyone who might want to |
22 |
become one too ...) |
23 |
And I still won't care how you feel about bugs, because bugs are facts |
24 |
that can't be reasoned with. Just fix things, or get out of the way and |
25 |
let me/us/anyone get things into a better shape. |
26 |
|
27 |
My white unicorn, so to speak, is reviving the GWN/GMN. I've been |
28 |
wanting to do it, but then I know that it'll eat lots of time I won't |
29 |
have left for other things. But it used to be pretty neat when it still |
30 |
existed. |
31 |
|
32 |
Who am I? |
33 |
Just a random person. At the moment I'm a freelance |
34 |
admin/programmer/whateveryouneed, working as a recruiter for Linux |
35 |
Lancers, a Gentoo dev, and a few other things I guess. Feel free to hire |
36 |
/ motivate / bribe me any way you want. |
37 |
|
38 |
So that's already more than I intended to write |
39 |
|
40 |
Be excellent to each other! |
