"New people"? You're joking, aren't you? Some of them are |
5 |
moderators for even a longer time than you are a Gentoo Dev. |
6 |
|
7 |
The problem just is, that the Forums have been forgotten at |
8 |
the time when our current (or even better now it's the old) |
9 |
metastructure was built up. The forum moderators now just |
10 |
take Gentoo's official way to add the forums and the folks |
11 |
behind it as a usual TLP or SLP (probably to PR). And I'm |
12 |
really ashamed that many Developers think they are just some |
13 |
beggars for an @gentoo.org- and shell-account. |
14 |
|
15 |
Did you really ever honoured their work? Think about the |
16 |
Forums will go down for a week. I don't want to count the |
17 |
questions a lot of developers will receive, which were |
18 |
usually answered in the forums instead. Or political |
19 |
discussions about Gentoo, which are hold in the forums and |
20 |
where the moderators slurp out the essence and hand it over |
21 |
to the related devs. |
22 |
|
23 |
Yes, we need the forums, we need the moderators, and we also |
24 |
need that the moderators will be involved into Gentoo |
25 |
completely, so that they know our rare internals and are |
26 |
allowed to take part on elections about the future of the |
27 |
project. |
28 |
|
29 |
Please keep in mind what has been said before: This thread |
30 |
ain't be a flamefest. This is the official and transparent |
31 |
way in how to integrate our forums as an official Gentoo |
32 |
project. |
