I resigned from the AFFS committee from last Monday. I will be working
on other free software development projects, particularly marketing
and projects which make me money or improve my life. I'll also be
spending more time on local environment projects.
My company is the AFFS postal address and I'm happy to continue
handling post promptly - either scanning, acting on or reposting - for
as long as I am able. The committee need to reassign membership and
financial management and give a forwarding address, but they've not
decided any of those yet, as far as I know, 2 weeks after getting my
resignation notice.
A longer explanation may follow soon. Basically, "Committee does not
have to stick by decisions that it has made" is the dominant view now,
apparently meaning that you can idle and then, if you don't like a
past agreement, you just ignore it. That approach caused too many
problems for me.
IIRC, my resignation means that 6 members can be elected at the AGM
and only 5 continuing members (some of whom are good anyway), so new
members will be a majority and can solve the problems. AFFS needs to
be efficient (to help finance things well) and open (to support the
community).
Submit your nominations to the secretary via [EMAIL PROTECTED] and
email your offered promises to [email protected], please.
