Although this belongs to devuan-dev I am posting this here for general discussion.
I think, the principle should hold indefinitely as anyone working on Devuan's projects, is doing it for free in their free time. Since there is no payment involved, it makes a lot of sense to keep some form of motivator. In this case, such a motivator, would be more say in decisions. Please, understand this email is NOT intended to push myself to have more say: that would be above my head, as I have absolutely NO experience besides with the most common equipment found at homes. Another point to state is, to repeat that unanimity, is important where major changes to Devuan are involved. This point has been criticised as the stalling policy of the EU, but needless to say, every policy has its downside. It is better to have slow progress rather than have schisms occurring as a result of deep disagreement. This has happened to Debian notwithstanding of its well-planned structure. I attribute the changes taking place in GNU/Linux in general, especially the introduction of systemd, to business forces placing their fingers where they shouldn't. Devuan should guard itself to create a structure that impeaches any member that acts in ways that would undermine the Devuan ideal in the long run. I think, Debian suffered what it suffered because it allowed members/developers with questionable backgrounds and design preferences. edbarx _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list [email protected] https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
