Stefano, as I told before I really appreciate your work and everything you do for Cocoon and its community and this kind of sentence is really getting annoying, first because for more and more people apache is more a code-ocracy than a real do-ocracy, and then because doing without structure, organization and decision is completely pointless. And if a few influential people don't dare to make some strategic choices and define directions for the project as important as this one, our calls (I'm not even a committer since I haven't "done" yet) will just remain without effect.
Sebastian (and others who feel the same way) would like to read an old blog entry of mine http://www.jroller.com/page/rgardler/20050324#effective_decision_making_in_community
This entry was actually written for some Digital Divide communities I am a part of but it draws from two other blogs that focus on Apache projects, one from Sylvain here in Cocoon.
