Admittedly, my first instinct is to say "this is policy, it's not changing, suck it up." But only because explaining policy takes time, and well, I am a pretty lazy person. But I very specifically went out of my way so as not to prop up my arguments by saying that they were policy and therefor were beyond reproach. I explained what our goal is wrt communication, and why the mailing list policy supports that goal. And even made it explicit that policy can be changed. (Just to make DOUBLE sure, in my own mind, that I was not resting on the "this is how we've always done it, so this is how we'll always do it" line of argument.) > And I apologize if I'm rocking the boat too much. > CouchDB is a do-ocracy.
