That isn't what I said, I merely pointed out that decisions which affect the entire community are supposed to be ratified by the entire community, as laid out in the constitution. Of course it is right and proper for the OGB to carry out its mandate, but making decisions which affect fundamental aspects of the OpenSolaris community such as the process by which projects come into existence is clearly *not* it's mandate. If you have a beef, it is with the constitution, not me. -- Alan Burlison --
