The problem with governance is that talented people tend to say "Fuck yuo !!!!" ...... and go elsewgere.
I am familiar with this since that's what I do in situations like that, in my proffession it's common if your're good enough .... then they are left with shit trying to do miracles .... and management seldom make great deeds on their own :) . I prefer unguided miracle workers , which seem's to fit the emc developement model so far. No offence, I want to do miracles not shit .... and miracles tend to one engineer against god & the laws of nature .... so far it doesn't look good for god & the laws of nature. / Just my two cent's ... :) ...

My take is that our governance and communications models should depend on our goals (or to use business speak, our mission). My goals are quite modest. I'd like something that I can use on my mill, and someday, my lathe. The lathe will probably be outfitted with gang tooling. I don't much are about using the system for commercial production. I do, however, care about complete and elegant solutions. (Although you might not guess that from my quick and dirty implementation of interpreter control statements -- O words -- and named parameters.) [A few things that I'd like to see are: higher order control (jerk limited), unlimited (or limited only by memory) look ahead, a better interactive interface. The first two are for elegance (I have no real need for them), the last for my own use in making prototypes]. I also care about people like Stuart who have used our work product to control machines with five axes. People who are willing to pay their dues always get my respect. I don't really care if other products have twice (or ten times) the rate of growth. I don't view this as a competition. And while it's great to have talented developers like Michael who seem to have almost unlimited time and energy, any developer who is willing to take on a sub-project and carry it to completion has my respect. On the matter of "not having enough time" to do a job, I'll say what I've been saying to the members of a volunteer ambulance corps of which I'm a former chief. We all have the same amount of time -- there are twenty-four hours in a day. How you spend that time is a matter of your priorities. I won't tell anyone how to set their priorities. I suggest, however, that before you take on a job that requires a specific time commitment, you examine your priorities. (Yes, I recognize that priorities change.) In my own case, my LinuxCNC priority has decreased from former years. I have a full time job working for someone else these days. I haven't fired up my milling machine in over a year. Unfortunately, I have a prior commitment (cooking lobster for forty people) the weekend at the end of our get together. I'm contemplating joining those of you who can make it to Wichita perhaps from Tuesday to Friday, though.
