I'll assert that there is a subset of participants on this list, taking part in this discussion and whom have added their names to the proposed committers list who feel strongly that the proposed project's efforts should include a strong end-user focus. I'm willing to believe that there is also a subset that thinks otherwise. If these difference can be resolved, that would be best. But if not, I'll suggest that this is a fundamental difference of vision which probably cannot be reconciled within a single proposal. -Rob --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
