And, yes, when someone suggests that those who don't agree with him remove themselves from the decision-making process, I would call that consensus by attrition. > Noel, you know all of this, yet you decide to ignore facts and only > re-inforce the myth of "consensus by attrition" of Stephen McConnell. The PMC e-mail archives support it -- including Stephen's direct requests to several PMC members for them to resign. > Your motives for that is unknown Motives? I was one of the ones willing to support Merlin at the ASF, and I've told Stephen that we'll be willing to test JAMES on Merlin. However, I have also said to him that I'm not interested in forking JAMES to do so. Merlin must maintain compatibility with existing Avalon components. If we are going to rewrite JAMES to deal with container issues, we'll move away from container dependence entirely. > Now is now, and everyone who set out to get Steve kicked out of ASF have > succeeded. How is Stephen kicked out? He's welcome to participate as far as I'm concerned. --- Noel --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
