.. and you know what? I'm wondering whether these high bureaucracy community mechanisms that we have come up with are something beneficial.. or even needed. We are doing F/OSS. This is a F/OSS community.. and after ten years working in this sort of communities, this is the first time that I see something similar. We may need to stop and think about it for a second. -- Greetings, alo.
