18 | I dunno, I just get the impression that people fear having a goal to
19 | work on and would rather just let things work out in a random way (like
20 | they have been for a while now). I'm not wanting to take the fun out of
21 | this, but I feel more structure and less redtape would help make us move
22 | forward faster and better.

24 More structure and less red tape ... How do those two work together? I
25 feel like they're connected -- a more structured organization will have
26 more bureaucracy and more red tape.
