call for seconds
I would argue that to start doing this outside of exceptional circumstances is changing the role of the board
What Patrick proposes will change the role of the Board??? I think not. The role of the Board would not change in any way.
Personally i'd strongly advocate for not making this change due to reasons already outlined in this thread.
I find it very difficult to accept the point being argued here - "trust is enough, no need for control". I have seen noone argue that in this thread. Real life is full of examples to the contrary - Swissair? Lehmann Brothers? Greece? (just happens to have been in the news due to the anniversary). Are there any actual rules for submitting the above to a vote by the Board? It is then up to the Board to decide whether to defer to the community, and if so, prepare a referendum at the earliest convenience. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (20.0°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - your free DNS host, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org
