Thank, Gwoo. Perhaps when you feel the time is right, you might consider posting something official to better explain the changes to everyone. As long as there is careful, hands on management of development decisions, ensuring the continued growth of the framework in a sensible way, I think everyone will benefit from more hands, and you won't get them in any serious way unless you more openly involve new talented people. The community, I think, might also feel more secure if development responsibility and knowledge was spread across several core team members who are managed well. Other projects which have tried to keep things too centralized (phpNuke) have stinted their growth as a result. By contrast, Joomla has literally taken off since they moved to a more open decision making format. It is clear cake's lead developer is a genius - the evidence is available for all to see. I also have no doubt about the indebtedness thousands of people on this list should feel towards him for the kindness he has shown everyone, by donating so much of his valuable time and abilities, for so long. But in my humble organizational opinion, responsibilities need to be a little more decentralized so the project can better scale going forward. In any case, I would imagine it is better to share a central role in the world's most successful project, than the lead role in a stagnant project. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
