There are many ways to fix this. Forcing some group to do it is not a solution. One work in progress (that will be proposed in a GLEP) is to change the current ML system to add a dev announcement list that would let everyone know of current discussions and decisions without requiring to follow endless threads. That may cut the "required reading" sufficiently so that a weekly summary is not necessary. > Isn't the idea that someone writes out a draft GLEP and gets it > discussed on -dev (and repeats said process until everyone is happy > with the GLEP) *before* pushing things to the council? It's certainly the idea. It should be at least put into words and discussed in the community before being voted on. -- Koon -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
