I don't think that's the biggest complaint. Unless you like in-tree |
| 7 |
revert-wars (ask patrick about it), bugzilla-wars (ask diego about it) |
| 8 |
and alienated users and devs we have to have a minimum of consensus and |
| 9 |
communication. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
If people don't answer e-mails, IRC pings, don't care about important |
| 12 |
discussions (e.g. eclasses) and close valid bug reports, but STILL do a |
| 13 |
lot of work themselves (which is the important point), then it doesn't |
| 14 |
matter how much you do or want to do. It will just fail. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
The lack of some functional projects is just a side effect of the fact, |
| 17 |
that this behavior is tolerated. And you cannot make it go away with a GLEP. |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
Discussing the GLEP is effectively just downplaying the issue and hoping |
| 20 |
that people will stop caring (most already do) and won't start forking. |
