Stepping in on a topic that I know little about, but from a related |
15 |
subject that irks me significantly.... |

Willliam: propose a (viable) change to policy that the council can vote |
18 |
on. The discussion on what is passed, is definitely that. If you have |
19 |
lodged an appeal to due process to Council, or if you think that some |
20 |
part of Gentoo acted illegally, take advice, and address the Trustees. |

rich0 has started a perfectly reasonable discussion as to explore some |
23 |
of the 'warts' if you like .. of the ComRel body, and how it may be |
24 |
Improved. It is the emphasis on the latter that is likely to make a |
25 |
difference going forward, and allows the possibility (and at this stage |
26 |
it is Only Possibility) that the status quo may be Re-evaluated against |
27 |
new policy. |

In proposing new changes, we must Justify why we feel these changes are |
30 |
necessary - not so much how they affect the Past, but how they will |
31 |
improve Gentoo for the Future. Examples are valid, but need to be |
32 |
presented in a factual matter. Simply getting angry and upset is likely |
33 |
to galvanise others against you, and make your plight harder to further. |

Just my 2c. And a dollar thrown in. |
