What about forming small workgroups which kick in when a topic becomes too "emotional" or simply too complex, unclear and confusing to be discussed on foundation list? If you look at the last 20 or 30 emails you will notice that there are some few people which participate at the discussion. I'm sure that there are others which are in "read-only" mode or in "ignore" mode. They may be too frightened to participate because all they get in return are unkind words. I suggest to form workgroups which get a own mailinglist and the workgroup can discuss the topic (whatever that would be) inside the group and present the outcome of the discussion on foundation list. -Felix _______________________________________________ foundation-list mailing list foundation-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-list
