Furthermore, my reasoning wrt a steering committee is that we (the project) might want to intervene if or when the developer(s) neglect to consider what the user(s) want. See e.g. the gcc/egcs story I have referred to in another posting.
Ok, completely agree to this, but how you want to do this? openFATE is right on the floor, and it doesn´t need an additional committee, maybe just give that task to the board? And, just to get clear, isn´t that also a task of a community manager?

It's a bit more difficult than that... We have only two way of having things developped: * make benevolent developper happy developping what we need. This is certainly not the case here. I feel pretty bad reading this discussion :-( - don't forget "have fun!" - so many people here work against they case... * pay to have some developper do the job. It's the case of paid developpers from SUSE, for example. As far as know there are some SUSE developpers working on systemd on duty. I beg if it's so it's because SUSE (and didn't I read also Red Hat) wants systemd now. Do somebody think SUSE or Red Hat are not server oriented? If so we just have to find money to support SystenV inits, because soon they won't have many people to do. It's a open source world thing that old stable system is boring. Why do anybody need more than Debian 3.0?? So, soon or later nobody have anymore fun working on it, and kde3 stops, Gnome 2 stops, SystemV init stops... and user do not like it (me the first didn't like the move kde3->kde4), but till now the competition (W or Mac) is not that apealing, so... jdd -- http://www.dodin.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org
