When I siad I would re-visit that decision I didn't mean that we would open it up to everyone. Clearly, that would not be a wise move. No, I wanted to give specific people accounts if they are going to be working on something that is sanctioned by GNOME or by GNOME foundation folks. I don't think Alex is a GNOME foundation member. It also forces a lot of us who are foundation members to use non-free services as well as not use our own technologies while plotting ways for others to use our technologies. > > > > _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
