The discussion may have arisen because the contribution process is a pain for many, but that is not what it is _about_. It is hopefully more productive than that. It is to try to find a process that is less of a pain and is acceptable to Clojure/core. I should have said in my previous message, but feel free to suggest all the ideas you want for alternate processes. If one of them is considered better than all of the suggestions made so far, and/or you are willing to hire a lawyer to help legally vet a new process, I think your voice would be sampled with an extremely heavy bias :-) Andy -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
