exactly, this is what we are trying to do (apart from doing our daily jobs to get a living), unfortunately the original SVN repository structure proved to be not very scalable and we decided to make the overall contribution process much more simple, but it needs time and know how, and I think the people who do have know how to help and are interested are already involved... > Release Early, Release Often requires lots of efforts, and if the time > you spend preparing the communication prevents you to keep on coding to > come up to something releasable, you better not release often, release > early if you want to make the wheel start rolling. yep, agree, detailed TODO list is great but requires time, as I said many times, we have such a list at http://blueprints.launchpad.net/nexenta >> --No offense meant, really -- but come ON, guys!! >> > I can understand your frustration (somehow I feel it too), but sometimes > situations are not so simple, I have plenty of confidence on the people > that are running this community.

I think we will ask for help as soon as there will be place to help, right now we need to setup a machine, configure builders and do such other tasks that simply can't be distributed that easily. I hope we all know the rule "bringing more people to the late software project will not make it run faster" :-) > Anyway, you have my full confidence and support.
