Not an option, English is a requirement. See my previous mail. |

I agree it may still be a bit confusing to some users and i agree |
| 17 |
those who don't take the quiz won't become an official member. |

You're not serious, are you? |
| 22 |
These people have dedicated a lot of work to the forums and |
| 23 |
Gentoo. They are doing a great job. Why fire them? |

You're still not serious, are you? |

The purpose of this GLEP is to solve a problem that was introduced a |
| 30 |
while ago. Giving 1/3 of the mods the boot isn't exactly my definition |
| 31 |
of solving a problem. What if there is no outcome with this GLEP, will |
| 32 |
everybody get the boot who isn't a developer then? |
| 33 |
I think the current suggestion in the GLEP is the best we can |
| 34 |
achieve. Old moderators may take the quiz, new moderators must. Given |
| 35 |
enough time all old moderators may retire sooner or later and one day |
| 36 |
all active moderators will be official. |
