I was not aware comrel and userrel were created in 2008. Timing is quite |
17 |
interesting. That could explain quite allot, and why at least in my opinion. |
18 |
Gentoo has been on the decline since ~2008. I do not feel either has had a |
19 |
good or positive impact. The issues in Gentoo could be directly related. |

No person will ever say they came to Gentoo because of comrel/userrel/devrel. |
22 |
Would anyone every say they left Gentoo because of comrel/userrel/devrel? |

Typically you must have allot going, be popular, and have to many wanting to |
25 |
volunteer. To have a need to weed out the bad. If there is not over staffing |
26 |
issues, then not sure driving anyone away is a good idea. Who will replace |
27 |
them? |
28 |
|

Correct the mistakes of the past, dis-ban comrel, leave recruiting... Ditch |
30 |
policies of policing, and focus more on growing the numbers... |

The biggest thing everyone should care about, is bringing more people to |
33 |
Gentoo!!! |
