Speaking as a member of the Engagement team I think OPW is really really great but that don't necessarily means that GNOME should have the administrative responsibility as it apparently put extra pressure on GNOME's already strained resources (speaking here primarily about the board members time). One must also think one of take into take into account the exceptionally growth of the program, I do not think the original organizers could envision such sucess when the program was started but the questions is now how to best move the program forward. -- -mvh Oliver Propst _______________________________________________ foundation-list mailing list foundation-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-list
