I've told it in the public part of the Board meeting on Friday, and
will repeat it again: I am very sad that this whole discussion started
framed as (let me paraphrase) "TDF will hire 2 developers, it is all
done deal, there are no problems" [in concrete words "Funds are
available for at least 2 developers allowing us to start employing them
straight away; Next steps: create and publish the job offers for
developers and on-board them ASAP"].

This is extremely unhelpful, as it totally dismisses views of others. 
There was no full agreement of this in the Board, no plan, no
prioritization against other budget items and no consideration if this
is the best way how to improve the situation - so please don't be
surprised it lead to a challenging discussion.

I am extremely grateful to Sophie, Michael W., Ilmari, Olivier H., and
others (I'm sure I forgot some, sorry about that) for their patience &
helpful input, and I do hope we will move to a more constructive,
concrete debate.

In my world [regardless of the hat], a constructive debate is much
easier over a document collecting:

* the problem statement & the need
* the pros & cons of various solutions
* the proposal & conclusion

That with change tracking (redlining) turned on & possibility to
comment - so that it is possible to finalize it to a form that is
acceptable for all involved: in other words, to form a consensus.

So - I am really looking forward to such a document!  Actually I'd be
happy to start it myself, if that helped the situation; and would ask
people to volunteer to work with me on that - but not sure it is a good
idea just now.

All the best,
Kendy
