My main comment on that [2] is as follows: > [...] As an AM I've noticed that there is quite some margin of > "coaching" in the NM process [...] > That is a point where we might benefit from introducing some "good > lectures" such as the Debian Community Guidelines (drafter by Enrico > Zini), which we've really never tried.

I've then observed in a different thread that I don't think community guidelines should be enforced any further. I don't believe guidelines should be used as sticks to beat others: they shape the project culture and are most effective when peer pressure among the involved peers refers to them. Thanks for your question! Cheers.
