Hi folks, I'm writing to the Plasma devel list on behalf of the CWG because worries from lots of individual team members and former members have come our way. Another person came to me today and pasted part of the IRC backlog from earlier today.
Disagreements always happen; what matters is how those disagreements are dealt with. It seems to me that trust has broken down, and so the 'thinking together' that has made the Plasma development team so central to the KDE community, and the software we produce, is in some danger. How can we change that? We're in a bit of a quandary. How can we help? We would appreciate some ideas either here on the devel list, or addressed to our private list. Pointing fingers and assigning blame is not our goal. What we want is some ideas about how to rebuild trust so that the Plasma devel team can be happy and healthy, and welcoming to new members. We're interested in hearing from those at the center of some of the disagreements, and those of bystanders as well. Where there has been heat and hurt feelings, we'd like to see light and reconciliation. If you write to us privately, venting and anger are ok; we can handle it, and it will go no further. So we are hoping to hear from everyone who has input. In the spirit of the new year, Valorie -- http://about.me/valoriez _______________________________________________ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
