I don't think you're being harsh, and I understand your frustration, but again, welcome to the real world. Anytime you're IN a work environment like this that involves MANY people, this is what happens Daniel. I don't know what your current life experiences are, but, given my time here on earth, this has been my discovery.
Wow. You've certainly worked in some dis-functional groups Kay!
I'm my real world experience thus far (corporate), meetings and committees are generally dreaded if the sizing of them becomes sufficiently large or politically diverse enough to significantly reduce effectiveness, and this exact behavior also happens in the website development teams of established OSS groups frequently until:
a) They get sick of it b) They decide to improve it (it really is possible)
The only root problem this group really seems to have is the acceptance by ..whoever can decide otherwise.. that the present way of doing things is actually a good enough way of continuing.
There are *more effective* ways of doing things, btw.
Regards and best wishes,
