Really? Lets see |
17 |
|
18 |
Debian: http://www.debian.org/devel/leader |
19 |
ArchLinux: http://www.archlinux.org/news/arch-leadership/ ( Had and |
20 |
still has a leader afaik ) |
21 |
|
22 |
Even though these projects have a single leader, they seem to have a |
23 |
clear technical direction and they are doing pretty well in development |
24 |
overall. Better than we do at the moment. |
25 |
|
26 |
I am still not convinced that a committee of 7 people is flexible enough |
27 |
to push radical changes. Maybe they are but they need to spend enough |
28 |
time talking about things before meetings. Does everyone has the time to |
29 |
spend so many hours on mailing lists? See how many discussions end up to |
30 |
/dev/null or just forgotten after a while. |
31 |
|
32 |
How much Gentoo differs from 2007? Ignore the load of EAPIs ( which I |
33 |
object to the frequency we release them ). Do you still think that the |
34 |
old style management (that is the one that was formed when Robbins left, |
35 |
and it is pretty much the same until then) is efficient enough nowadays? |
