Adding to this: I do not have a deep understanding of the Apache way of things. Personally, I do not get the point why the users of the software cannot take part in any of those decisions. I just may not get the point, of course. Citizens are asked to vote on election day, for example. Here it's like a dictatorship of those with the power to do so deciding the future of all others. Don't get me wrong on this please. English is not my native language and I may not have found the proper words here. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@maven.apache.org
