Unofficially it has:

The board seems to stay out of technical decisions, and the members only vote on the very occasional item. (ie. The members voted on the overall strategy recently.) I have recently begun to think this is was only a clever ploy to occupy the project members with something largely inconsequential. Those of us who occupied ourselves with debating/proposing/refining the strategy neglected to consider the one key thing - to implement a strategy one needs ownership and leadership, something we do not have.
Well we´ve got leadership. The board
Apologies, but have you looked the tasks of the board recently? They are in no way tasked with leading _anything_.
It´s not very strict about "leading", but why the f*ck it should?
Because we otherwise don't have any, and without it we will at best get derailed, at worst go nowhere at all.
Why it should lead a bunch of people who do the entire work in their free time? There´s no sense at all.
Okay - I'll add "anarchist" to my personal profile of you. :-) -- Per Jessen, Zürich (1.8°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org
