eeerrrrr.... no [OT] or {WayOT] tag there?? Important stuff this and refreshing that all on list will get insights here but this is getting way off topic. Back to topic with lot of inter spread comments : Minutes are results of hours of deliberations (likely mangled mis-quote that!!) so it is difficult for Gora (who is doing an admirable job) to put is "essence" of discussion. Terse or otherwise, the intention for community respect is very much there in decision making and most of us ( and I hope that means me as well) try to keep the intentions of community development and involvement in our thoughts while voting one way or other. But then community has to participate more (comment : just like voters in a democracy are supposed to but hardly do and only bemoan) to be heard and by those "managing" (by devoting their volunteer time). Even on this list right now there are only a handful (okay granted two handful) of people discussing while majority are only reading (or just deleting??? ye gawd!!) So as I said yesterday there are many words ( #dict freed ) that can try to capture essence of what all we want (the problem here is we may want different variants of same thing) but my suggestion *and not dictate) would be to go with Freed as long as most (see comment on democracy) of us feel that this does represent most (see comment on democracy) of the views. {Turning around and reading what I have belched out thus far and getting no sense ;-( thus deciding to stop right here} -- Regards, Sudev Barar _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
