As you have just affirmed the undertaker's lead decision; this mail now rather serves as questions and argumentation for future reference.

Commitment and for example commits are two different things; so, the meaning of activity is a crucial thing to understand this metaphor. > If no one disagrees, then we should add this to the list of > undertakers competence. This competence should not be a rule or a job; rather, it should be the exception. It is already rare for this to happen in a project; so, if we start forcing this to happen a bit more often (as that's the effect this action will lead to) it is simply going to hurt more people. Unless, of course, there is a good reason to; I wonder if there are any projects where the lead is blocking progress, unresponsive, ... in a way that affects Gentoo as a whole without members speaking up about it. As for project members, I think this is up to the lead to determine. Scanning the project list, I do not see anything really problematic; so, I think we are discussing something that is not an actual problem. - -- With kind regards, Tom Wijsman (TomWij) Gentoo Developer E-mail address : [email protected] GPG Public Key : 6D34E57D GPG Fingerprint : C165 AF18 AB4C 400B C3D2 ABF0 95B2 1FCD 6D34 E57D -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.22 (GNU/Linux) iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJSXbLYAAoJEJWyH81tNOV9+sgH/ilMI8Ey+woviXyJUaHgi/Wj gLM5Bmf5eGbEmDr1bhevkIJ2wLc26D1P+aICiW+GIiLaeQw+w1WDxzvZKmozI6QJ dJFqU6/qoktxTy+bsW2nCqUkQzHU3ZfQ5pBxsQ/ovUDKdyUaPLqG1nFRjUX1zXLi 7tEKN9JfOiUOBgENasOEnH8wLRMU+Mk03JOplYI4PcPVKFOoYDGYh8u60SUh1e5M PwQ4/qmIuRF5XC2BT1F3FcBS77ZuX+2KbEy66IwH2tnydhC9NowxF0gzSDlwiMAr bXiBnZveuvYNiSk6CQE70Yjtrbq8QUQsAWg6B6WpffLypSLbJ1EJA61y554k0hE= =xpa7 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
