Of course, in case the main intention were for TDF to provide more
business-like services (like an LTS version or creating an impression
of "donate a certain amount of money and your pet bug will be

the business model of ecosystem companies.
Totally agree. But I don't see the issue, as ESC and BoD members could
easily stop any project before it starts, when there is a potential
risk of conflict. AFAIK, major development activities are scrutinized
by both bodies, as they are ranked in order of importance, suggested,
approved and transformed to tenders, or not considered for tendering.
I totally agree, extending that process to cover significant tasks
that internal developers would work on may be a solution.
Development activities which are not considered for tendering, or just
ignored, could probably be developed by TDF without creating
disruptions (or even discussions).
To double-check nobody is "secretly" working on that as well or is
planning to do so, discussing/mentioning larger items first certainly
won't hurt.
(But that doesn't only apply for work done by TDF developers; e.g. the
weekly ESC call already has a "What’s cooking" section where that
would fit well.)
I am rather sure that in 7 million lines of code (plus the open bugs)
there are enough challenges for everyone.
Definitely!
Of course, given my complete lack of understanding of development, is
too easy to find a technical angle to disprove what I just wrote,
[...]
At least from my developer's perspective, I totally agree with what you
wrote.
Thanks again,
Marina
