Interesting. What are your thoughts on using this approach for our current discussion? As I said, staying abreast of all the threads where these discussions are occurring is difficult at best and I feel like some are treating certain ideas as foregone conclusions because the entire community hasn't been given the time and opportunity to engage without joining the melee. In the end, I imagine we will end up compromising, but I think it is important to take a step back and let others propose a few strategies without it adding to the current frenzy. > >--------------------------------------------------------------------- >To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org >For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
