We were hardly zero tier. My complaint is that if you didn't go to the video meeting that there seemed to be no way to find out what happened, nor a way to see the discussion after the fact.
That is what I meant by two tier. IMHO the first order of business of the video meeting would be to figure out how to include people not there with reasonable effort. The nice thing about maillists and chats is that they are self documenting. There is nothing wrong with having video chats from time to time. But I think you are using it to force (relatively) quick decisions rather then an alternative way to comunnicate. You want to get something done in this project faster - then become a developer and do it. We very seldom refuse to incorporate work that was been merged. I found out pretty early that if I wanted to do work that I thought might be a problem then I would ty to discuss on the maillist. Sometimes people answered, sometimes not. If not, then I would merge my work when ready. Nothing like merged work to motivate people to get involved. Obviously, there are some things that we need to agree on - such as merge strategy that we must discuss to change, but the time it takes to discuss on mail list is actually an advantage. What we are really missing is a vision to converge on and a leader to see it through. And more developers. But that is no guarantee either - mackinekit had those and has petered out it seems, unfortunately. But now that I have a link, at least I can see the summary of what you were thinking/discussing.

Seeing our inability to discuss and decide lately, at least to support and/or free Andy, if not to look forward and plan for the future, we almost look like a zero tier no-org :'( Hopefully some things will come out of it because written channels have proven inoperative these days... _______________________________________________ Emc-developers mailing list Emc-developers@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers _______________________________________________ Emc-developers mailing list Emc-developers@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers
