I agree that the strategy shouldn't be *too* exclusionary, but in targetting everyone, we'd almost be targetting noone :-)
No, we should target those for whom we can provide something.
Exactly. That's the point of the strategy - defining: to whom we can provide something of value; and what we're going to provide that's worth our time, effort, resources to provide.
Yeah, but focusing on attracting developers does not preclude striving for becoming the best KDE distro for end-users as long as there are people interested in working on it. There are many voluntary contributors who work on a certain area of their personal interest and who will not suddely move to work on a different area. In the worst case we will just lose these people.
No-one is asking people to move. Members of the community will do what they want to do.
You cannot simply redistribute resources at will within the project, this might be how it works in corporate entities (that is among paid (Novell) employees) but certainly not among voluntary contributors. This seems to be a fundamental misconception prevalent in the whole debate.
The strategy is also about creating a platform / distro / image that will attract the contributors. If we are the best in the world (or amongst the best) in an area then the best contributors in that area will come.
