Hello

|
| 6 |
As you have just affirmed the undertaker's lead decision; this mail
|
| 7 |
now rather serves as questions and argumentation for future reference.

Why? What makes this an improvement over what we already do?
|
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
Is there an actual need for this? What triggered this thought?

How would you define activity? Commits? Discussion? Presence?

|

Commitment and for example commits are two different things; so, the
|
| 30 |
meaning of activity is a crucial thing to understand this metaphor.

This competence should not be a rule or a job; rather, it should be the
|
| 36 |
exception. It is already rare for this to happen in a project; so, if
|
| 37 |
we start forcing this to happen a bit more often (as that's the effect
|
| 38 |
this action will lead to) it is simply going to hurt more people.
|
| 39 |
|
| 40 |
Unless, of course, there is a good reason to; I wonder if there are any
|
| 41 |
projects where the lead is blocking progress, unresponsive, ... in a
|
| 42 |
way that affects Gentoo as a whole without members speaking up about it.
|
| 43 |
|
| 44 |
As for project members, I think this is up to the lead to determine.
|
| 45 |
|
| 46 |
Scanning the project list, I do not see anything really problematic;
|
| 47 |
so, I think we are discussing something that is not an actual problem.
