How is the DPL empowered to take that decision when it is so obviously against some developers' opinions? > Instead, he did his best to take off his DPL hat, make a private > initiative which is directed towards helping Debian, without the need > of any DPL special power. Yes, instead of working as DPL to find a compromise, he yet again seeks to direct debian funding away from debian's control and its established partners. Even IMO-reasonable suggestions, such as goal-based rather than time-based payments, seemed to be ignored. > What does he get for trying his best to gather more support for Debian? > A "let's fire the DPL" GR. If this DPL's best does not include revising his proposals or seeking compromise, then it's time for a new DPL. This will get support for more than the Dunk Tank reason. [...] > Why on earth are you giving a shit to some random broken article? I agree, the article inaccuracies are not a major reason to support the recall, but it is likely to be the first of many if the DPL is heading a debian proposal which has been taken outside the project. > I'm deeply disappointed by the french cabal supporting this DPL > bashing. Please do feel responsible for the fate of the project after > such a stupid vote. When I asked for likely seconds for a recall a while ago (now made obsolete by this proposal), I was surprised by the number of French-sounding supporters. I myself am probably a francophile. I wonder, is there something about this brash DPL which is particularly un-French? One for the sociologists/anthropologists, perhaps?
