Sure it would have appeared sometime this week, so not as early, but it would have appeared here early enough. While I do know that some stuff seems to be decided behind closed doors it is simply more efficient to get a few developers in one room for a weekend, than discussing stuff for weeks on end on a mailing list. (see, for example, the coastline stuff, that was basically decided on the dev meet in Essen, between a few guys interested in the problem) The important thing here is, that the documentation is always behind current events, and if you happen to stumble upon such events you can't see any documentation. I also think the combination of the now marked as unrealistic release date and said lack of documentation made you overreact a little. I much rather think the discussion shows that everybody who was there at the meet fully intended to document what they decided, but simply didn't have the time yet to do so. Besides that *every topic* I can see from casually reading the wiki page has been circulated on the dev list for *months*. Besides the stuff on *how* to achieve for example changesets, but that's only implementation. Yes, I know that you, as an editor developer, are most interested in the latter, but I am sure that the relevant pieces of information would have been circulated here in time, (like, today or tomorrow) if you hadn't complained so loudly, so this "ruckus" gained you like one or two days. - -- Dirk-Lüder "Deelkar" Kreie Bremen - 53.0952°N 8.8652°E -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.7 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFIHwzOFUbODdpRVDwRAps3AKDLugx5IaDmCjy9wfwtnfoVG9AK3wCfaK4p No9obzcwoGrfddhMX84j27Y= =cf5o -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
