Hi, I think what Martin is trying to make clear here Alan, is that there is, too much corporate mumbo jumbo here. Its rather synthetic not to have a social aspect to a community. People should be *allowed* to be off topic as well sometimes, in the IRC people can constantly flamed if they don't ask a question in the right way and such or are off topic. This is not a good environment for the workplace and open source projects *are* just like a workplace.
When people such as myself file large number of bug reports and testing on each release of snv for the 2008.11 distro release making it as stable and usable as say Ubuntu. I would at least like to be in the release notes.. I don't see Moinak Ghosh in the last release notes even though, without him you would not even have a LiveCD and he was even working for Sun at the time ! All the 'Mr. no ones' are left by the wast side while we all hear about Sun's great new product that has been made possible by Sun and 'community' with no real reference to names. I think your also taking "Hello, how are you" in a way to literal sense to what is meant above. I expect to get flamed for this and getting involved anyway :/ Best Regards, Edward O'Callaghan. 2008/9/13 Alan Coopersmith <Alan.Coopersmith at sun.com>: > Martin Bochnig wrote: >>> If that is what you wish, I can remove you from the commit access list and >>> remove all your commits from the gate.
