Dick has, on numerous occasions, outlined the reasons what was kept private. +1 to his reasons from me.
His reasoning was that it would give them an advantage. And I keep asking which advantage? For some unknown reason you aren't answering my question either...
You want to keep it private, fine. You know why I want it to be public? To see the actions of the board. And maybe give an advice if I can.
For the record, we're still spending $0 on hosting.
Which isn't quite right either. You know why? Because we'll feel quilt and will make a generous donation as compensation. Why not being reasonable and either pay a commercial company or compensate them for their work in a reasonable manner? That's what I suggested back than as well... I'll be glad to facilitate a dedicated server at a north-american hosting company and even take responsibility for it, how's that? 1K per year should be sufficient for that purpose.
While I understand your frustration here Eddy, I don't think your adversarial tone gets us anywhere. Want to make it better? Great, please nominate yourself (heck I'll do it for you if you like) to the board.
Ahhhh :-)
Don't just complain; do something. Nobody is stopping you.
Boy, I clocked more than 400 hours just in November (which wasn't a particular busy month), got myself a family and a few kids too. Of course it's my life and a different mentality, but hell no, I'm not impressed. I'm not complaining either, but participating - not agreeing with some handling of the board or foundation doesn't equals complaints! See, there is a difference...
I'm investing my time where I believe it matters most to me, not defending my actions in any way. I'll do something where I care and if I can. Does that mean I have to accept and agree with all your decisions? Suggesting to provide a different performance or requesting to keep things in the open should give you something to think about (at best). And apparently I'm not alone.
