Had he not mentioned the conversations with the trustees. Would we have |
| 7 |
know it took place? Granted we could also blame our remaining trustees |
| 8 |
as well. But they aren't suggesting/dictating a radical change either. |

Is that an official medium to conduct foundational matters? If one is to |
| 15 |
make suggestions or offers to or about the Gentoo Foundation. Shouldn't |
| 16 |
they use official mediums? |

The Gentoo Developers were discussing this issue on an internal mailing |
| 19 |
list -core. If it weren't for a leak, Daniel wouldn't have blogged. |
| 20 |
Which he made a choice to blog, instead of a post to a public ml, like |
| 21 |
-nfp. Not even using the medium that informed him in the first place. |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
Seems like avoidance of communication to me. Which I have had friendly |
| 24 |
communications with Daniel in the past. Likely would again in the |
| 25 |
present and future. Why he would not participate, does bother me a |
| 26 |
little, and leaves one to wonder. |

Sure, and while he is suggesting it to others. Is he following his own |
| 34 |
advice? |
