Jörg, When you wrote to me in a private mail about this matter, I had asked you not to continue this discussion by using my name. You have started this thread, then make sure that it is continued with a different title. I have had enough of my name being associated with your discussion.

When you make decisions, you should justify them meaningfully, then there will be less criticism. Remember that we made Günter(?) Feierabend a committer, even without any previous performance, because it was technically useful and I didn't disagree, but rather actively endorsed the approach. and on the edge: freedom is, for me, typically evidenced by a variety of different opinions. It may be that even under conditions of freedom everyone has the same opinion, but that is rather atypical and typical for completely different circumstances. greetings, Jörg - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org

Don't you think that starting a *new* mail thread is the only way to do this? Yes, this criticism is justified. I accept it and apologize for not opening a new thread. OK But only from just 1-2 people, right? I doubt that it was the complete PMC. As far as I heard the first answer from the PMC to me was already agreed upon within the PMC, so this answer was the opinion of the whole PMC, although it was given by a single PMC member. I don't remember about any topic where every PMC has given an opinion that was collected first and then an answer was sent to you. Already this, first, answer I found completely inappropriate and was the beginning of a deep disappointment on my part. Until then I was convinced that at least the PMC in its entirety would react with wisdom and in an appropriate way to all problems of the project and that I could always hope for support from the PMC, no matter how big the problems were. Normally you can and should believe in this assumption. However, also the PMC consists of humans and these are not always free of errors. I can only speak openly about what I think, because imho problems can only be solved with openness. If this openness is interpreted to me as if I only want to provoke, I don't know what to do. I do not believe in polite lies. and please read me correctly, because I made it very clear that I do not mean the whole PMC: "Let me be more specific: I have little trust in those who are currently have a decisive influence on its activities, because there are also members of the PMC whose performance I regard with great respect and many members whom I have never got to know concretely." OK, this is your experience and therefore your opinion. Other inside and outside the PMC may have made different experiences. BTW: When someone is not invited until now means *of course not* that the person is not wanted. Because it is also possible that the PMC don't know her/him or doesn't see the full amount of participation in the OpenOffice project. How could a person not be known with whom e.g. Mathias has worked together? A person who had also worked on the previous flyers. I don't know how but it is possible. Even when we stand for open source and open communication, there are parts that are maybe not open or not open enough. As always, these are my 2ct.

Nothing about that gives you the right to imply what you imply. Why should I have to consult with Jan at all? Here two people were treated differently, whether Jan bothers or not. That is my opinion, whether Jan shares it or not. Or if there's a linguistic misunderstanding, you missed your chance to make that clear. But I think the sentence I quoted is crystal clear. greetings, Jörg fyi: I had written to Jan yesterday immediately to talk to him, but because he was not at home I have no answer yet, only a note that he was not at home. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org

Then you didn't read Mathias' statement on de-dev (or was it de-users?) about his aversions to me. I found it symptomatic that remained unchallenged as Mathias expressed himself there.

You are obviously in error about the treatment: First there is a nomination by a PMC member.. Than there is a decision of the PMC. An after that the individual is asked, whether (s)he wants to become a committer. By the way: the policy of the PMC is to include better more then less people into the project.

Power, including the PMC, should be used responsibly. Personal sympathies are not a good signpost; performance alone should count. These things are also a very simple question of the sense of justice and where performance is no longer judged fairly, our project AOO suffers. And there should be no doubt: Detlef undoubtedly deserves to be a committer, only others have that to the same degree. And whoever apparently excludes these others from it(*), makes his opinion clear. (*) Or were others also asked and refused? (I had already asked Peter this question.)

Re: New Committer: Detlef Nannen
Hi Jörg, that is in general no secret and well known: The PMC of an Apache project closely monitors the contributions of individuals. When a PMC member nominates an individual, it is usefull the member talks to other members before the nomination. The committee votes to decide whether the contributions of the individual qualify for committer-ship. Often there is a large consensus about this question. Than the individuals is asked, whether (s)he wants to become a committer. If the persons says yes, there is some legal and technical formalities and in the end (s)he will be presented and welcomed as a new committer. It is in essence the same way as in your case.

Flyer design and booth management, another active member of the German AOO community has also done so in the past. Why isn't the committer offered to him as well? Or was he offered the committer and he turned it down? Jörg - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org
Re: New Committer: Detlef Nannen
Hi Detlef, Welcome as a committer on the Apache OpenOffice project. I hope you are fine that I added your name at the cwiki to mark you as an involved volunteer. I think it is a good thing that we have you maintaining the flyers. You did it in the past with a lot of dedication, and shown activity on our Lists. I hope you stay that way and work with the booth team in order we have something to present to people in future.

In particular, I note that there were other people involved in the flyers who obviously didn't get committer status for that? Why is the committer status not offered to all people involved in the flyer? Why are past performance and the intention for future performance not equally recognised?
