Hey guys, don't get me wrong (I'll clarify in a second) but I give it a -1.
It is just my personal feeling. I'm a part of the community since the early beginning and the last months I thought it was quite quiet. Yeah there was the voting for the release and I really appreciate it. I can see that the project is getting more visiblility, but the concepts, the code and all the other stuff is slowly going forward. There is no real plan where to go. No real leader which really "leads" the community. Sometimes I have the feeling that new features were implemented, without a real concept how to do it. No Review and so on. All this stuff brings me to my -1. Each project needs people who can push projects and a community which has visions. (I know there are visions, but not really written down) I know that DM will get a TLP and I'm happy about it. Just wanted to show my personal feelings.
