Unfortunately of the strategies Gordon outlined, the key missing ingredient
was Mitel's offer to provide any assistance.

I'm willing to provide the time and resources I have to improve the SME
Server, how about the same from Mitel.  All I need is assistance with
getting the foundation in place.  From there I'll do the rest as best I can.

Alternately, what is the point in Mitel hosting a devinfo list if Mitel will
not offer assistance and work directly with devinfo members in improving the
Mitel SME Server?

You may have noticed the dramatic change over the last year of this list. 
This list appears almost dormant at times.  There has been little to no
cooperative development on list in many months.  The one exception I recall
being demonstrated by Peter and commented by myself on this thread:

http://www.mail-archive.com/devinfo@;lists.e-smith.org/msg10459.html

There has been little to no commentary or posts from devinfo members.  Where
have all the devinfo members gone?  Why are they reluctant to post their
comments?  Is there a reason for this relucatance to comment on list?

In my latest attempts to post development issues on list, I have yet to
receive a reply that Mitel would be interested in working with me.

In my latest posts to bugs where I have submitted patches to existing Mitel
rpms I have yet to see anything come back to the community in the form of an
updated rpm from Mitel.

Again, if I can offer out of my busy schedule my free time and resources to
improve your product, certainly someone from Mitel could do the same.  We
must learn to work cooperatively together.

If this list is to survive, devinfo members and Mitel must find a way to
work together.  If we can not, then this list serves no purpose but to post
the occasional ANNOUNCEMENT from time to time.

I feel we can and must do better to keep this development list and devinfo
member involvement alive so that the community will benefit from an improved
Mitel SME Server product.
