The foundation was made only to collect and redistribute money. In order |
6 |
to do that it was made sort of copyright collector as well (but that was |
7 |
actively blocked by the fact the EU law prevents that). |

In short and sweet summary: |
10 |
|
11 |
- The Council was made to be the team leading Gentoo, we have elections |
12 |
for that reason. |
13 |
- Recruitment should get new wonderful people as Developers, either by |
14 |
inviting them or by vetting them. |
15 |
- Comrel is offloading from the council the management of conflicts |
16 |
between developers. Incidentally it had to manage also troublemakers, |
17 |
creeps, and other horrible people that the recruitment process failed to |
18 |
recognize as such (luckily happened really few times). |
19 |
- Q/A is offloading from the council the management of day-by-day |
20 |
technical issues and possibly prevent people not so skilled from destroy |
21 |
systems. |
22 |
- Foundation should just care of money on behalf of the council and not |
23 |
interfere with the community. |
24 |
|
25 |
Giving the Foundation more power than act as financial operations is a |
26 |
quite bad idea to me. |
