We seem to have agreed to change the time period to 48 hours, but that doesn't change things much. It's important to understand that no one is required to do anything but respond to e-mails addressed to him personally within that time period. If something is broken and that person is asked to fix it, we have not codified any responsibility on his part to do so... EVER. We only ask that he respond to the e-mail, so that everyone else can have some idea of what's going on. A valid response is "I'm busy this week. I'll do it on <specific date>." I can't, as president, organize people who can't commit to doing that within 48 hours. If that rules some people out from volunteering, then that's too bad, but I don't think there's any alternative. We need to be able to predict some element of the timing of communication. _______________________________________________ HCoop-Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://hcoop.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hcoop-discuss
