Hello! |

yngwin's devaway message still reads |
5 |
|
6 |
"inactive, pending resolution of devrel issue". |
7 |
|
8 |
yngwin retired. I woudn't go as far as saying that his case made him |
9 |
retire but I definitely say that _DevRel failed on his case_. |
10 |
I believe I had enough insight to be able to say. |
11 |
|
12 |
|
13 |
I would like to propose these fundamental changes to DevRel: |
14 |
|
15 |
1) Make the list of subscribers to the devrel alias public |
16 |
|
17 |
Idea: If you share private information you have a right |
18 |
to know with whom you share. |
19 |
|
20 |
2) Clearly split DevRel into groups for recruiting and conflict |
21 |
resolution with distinct aliases. |
22 |
|
23 |
3) Let Gentoo developers vote on who's in the conflict resolution |
24 |
team just like we do with the council. |
25 |
|
26 |
4) Disallow membership with both the conflict resolution group |
27 |
and the council at the same time (as the council is where issues |
28 |
with devrel are taken to). |
29 |
|
30 |
Idea: From insight on cases of DevRel versus members of RevRel |
31 |
I can tell this dossn't work well. I suppose that |
32 |
Council against Council-DevRel doesn't work better. |
33 |
|
34 |
Problem: Both betelgeuse and jmbsvicetto are DevRel members |
35 |
nominated for the upcoming council election. |
36 |
As I am also nominated proposing such rule could be |
37 |
understood aiming at decreasing their chances on the |
38 |
council and increasing mine as a result. However, as I |
39 |
propose to start over with a developer voted conflict |
40 |
resolution team this is not the case. The only |
41 |
implication is that if they make it to the council |
42 |
they cannot be elected for the conflict resolution team. |
43 |
|
44 |
|
45 |
DevRel is one of the most important things in Gentoo - we dependend on |
46 |
that working well. If you care about this please make yourself heard. |
47 |

Thanks, |
