If this situation with kde4 had not yet been put before the board of maintainers, then get in on the agenda. From a historical standpoint, I would like to see what decisions concerning this desktop have been made by the board to date. Where are the minutes from the board meetings and past decisions by the board of maintainers kept? The guiding principles of openSuSE require: <quote> ... transparency of the decision making processes, transparency of communication and transparency of work and collaboration processes. That includes openly answering questions, providing all relevant information, and actively keeping all involved parties informed. We are convinced that a transparent culture whose inner workings can be understood by everybody provides the most efficient and rewarding environment to reach our goals. </quote> If you haven't read them lately, they can be found at: https://users.opensuse.org/guidingprinciples Further, the governance principles require that: <quote> The openSUSE community and Novell define the content of the distribution based on defined criteria and a transparent process led by the board of maintainers. </quote> Will one of you Novell or openSuSE guys please provide a link to the criteria referenced in the guiding principles paragraph above. This desktop seems like a lost ship without a compass or heading. What is the direction here? Further troubling is that the way the kde4 decision making process has progressed. I read or scan virtually every post and I visit the openSuSE site almost daily. The entire kde4 development process seems to have ignored completely the openSuSE guiding principles and the transparency requirement embodied therein. Where can I read through the minutes to learn about the direction that is being taken? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
