Hence my comment that this is a bit of a sledgehammer approach. I |
| 7 |
really wouldn't want to see "current head of devrel becomes judge, |
| 8 |
jury, and executioner" as a long-term strategy. However, the status |
| 9 |
quo is not acceptable either. |

He did say he was working on long-term proposals, and I think we ought |
| 12 |
to at least let him offer his suggestions before we jump down his |
| 13 |
throat. If things get out of hand as a community I'm sure we'll deal |
| 14 |
with it, but the pendulum is far to the opposite side right now. |

The fact is that we already trust every Gentoo dev with the equivalent |
| 17 |
of root on our systems, so I think we can give Markos the benefit of |
| 18 |
the doubt when he aims to reform Devrel. |
