Re: [Lubuntu-brainstorming] [Proposal] LCC (Lubuntu Community Council)

2013-11-15 Thread David Yentzen
rrent direction, I do not hold high hopes for it long-term. Every organization, at some point in its early development, makes the transition from a small size to a larger more complex size. How successfully this is done determines, in a large way, the long-term success of the organization. The community council model is the best way to ensure Lubuntu's continued existence because it more fairly distributes the tasks and no one person becomes overburdened. Let's move forward.
