[ This is a re-send from the general AOLSERVER list. If you receive this twice, I apologize. ]
Hi, Months ago, we experimented with the idea of an "AOLserver Core Team" similar to Tcl's core team practice. I'd say that for whatever reason, the experiment ended as failure as the team is defunct. I'd like to suggest an alternate organizational style: a steering committee. To avoid the overhead of holding elections, remembering to hold them, any re-votes or run-offs, etc., I suggest that seats on the steering committee be assigned by the project leader (hey!). I don't particularly care about the make-up of the committee (percentage of AOL seats vs. non-AOL seats), it's not so much a voting committee as just a voicing of desires from especially interested parties. In a sense, the constituency of this mailing list is already an informal steering committee, but because of that very nature, there's not much insight into what the actual direction of the project is at any given time. Perhaps anyone who thinks this is a good idea and would like to participate in the committee, please reply to this email. In your response, send a statement in the form of: As a member of the steering committee representing (insert Company/Organization/Individual's name here), I think the project's efforts should be focused on: (list a maximum of up to 3 items). I will collect all the responses and use it as a basis for the 2005/2006 project roadmap. -- Dossy -- Dossy Shiobara mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Panoptic Computer Network web: http://www.panoptic.com/ "He realized the fastest way to change is to laugh at your own folly -- then you can let go and quickly move on."
