Glad you asked. We elected you to be a leader. We expect you to lead. As an OGB member, I expect(ed?) you to actively reorganize the legacy website/communities/projects to conform to the newly ratified constitution. This includes terminating those that are moribund or who refuse (or are unable) to operate as required, constructing new pieces as needed (consolidations spring to mind), reparenting and restructuring the remaining pieces, and initiating the new behavior patterns required by the new constitution. In this particular situation, you, Keith, should have involved yourself (as a community member, subject mater expert, and OGB member) in those dysfunctional CGs and helped them to understand, buy into and model the desired behavior. Heck, even doing this once, and using that community as a role model, would have been more than sufficient to get the ball rolling elsewhere. -John (The irony is that you, as one of the very people we elected to lead us, are sitting back and complaining that nobody is actually doing any leading.)
