I fully understand Your point, but still I think jdd's proposal has good base. I think we do need some "conciliation" board or so made from old and honorable community members, ehm. :-) Not necessarily from past Board members, IMHO separate voting would be better, so that there is no link with the Board (and no possible conflict of (emotional, ...) interests or so). I suppose there should be not much work for such group (ehm...), so there could be just ~3 people voted for longer time.
Putting my own objections aside which are primarily based on my experience and exhaustion at the nonsense you need to deal with in such a position and trying to look at this rationally. It seems to me you are suggesting an elected body to act as a conflict resolution body for our elected Board which acts as a conflict resolution body? That body is bound to have some disagreements, and as history has proven even popular people can behave in a manner unbecoming when elected to a responsible role, so we have to consider the need for conflict resolution of that new body. So do we need an elected body to act as a conflict resolution body to act as a conflict resolution body for our elected conflict resolution body for our elected Board? Or do we just accept that people are fallable and Simon's suggestion is probably the best option. After all, we're a project that prides itself on being relatively lightweight when it comes to its organisational structure, adding layers upon layers is probably not the right lesson to have learnt from this saga. -- Richard Brown Linux Distribution Engineer - Future Technology Team Phone +4991174053-361 SUSE Software Solutions Germany GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, D-90409 Nuernberg (HRB 36809, AG Nürnberg) Geschäftsführer: Felix Imendörffer -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org
