This is not how it's perceived by the community, as you have probably noticed by now. I tried to explain how it's seen from developer point of view, but with no luck so far; so I'll leave this to somebody else so that you don't have to trust my perception or my limited communication skills. 2012/7/4 Cassidy James [email protected] > If you or anyone else has any further specific issues you'd like to raise, > the Council is reachable at [email protected] This means fragmented private discussions between interested community members and the council, with all the burden of systematizing the proposals on the Council. Doesn't sound like a good idea to me, so I got really bold and kicked off a google doc instead. I've tried to make it structured and split the problem into smaller parts that can later be combined to avoid getting flooded by a multitude of options. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1zhdNR-C6o_-99QoZPGWcV-KfAnzrzkc4hVgDZARMLEY/edit Council: please take a bit of your time to go through it. I.e.: please show a little respect to the work done, and don't disregard it right away. Everybody: please be nice in there. I'm CC'ing the council email, just to make sure the doc is seen by the council too. While (according to Dan) you were not going to change the way you attract donations, IMO it's time to do it. Especially since we're unhappy about the current state of the matter. -- Sergey "Shnatsel" Davidoff -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~elementary-dev-community Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~elementary-dev-community More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
