If they're more focused communities -- ones that are attempting to solve clear problems (such as "make the networking code go faster") -- then they can steer projects in that area with greater effectiveness. Right now, we're without direction. > The problem "too hard to keep up with everything" is more of an > indictment about how we're communicating.

I agree that it's a real problem. It's just not *this* problem. Moreover, neither joining communities into one giant hairball nor cutting them into tiny islands solves that problem. It has nothing to do with the problem. The problem _you_ are talking about is a communications problem, and we need to figure out better ways to communicate. That can go on with or without figuring out what the communities should be doing. -- James Carlson, Solaris Networking <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sun Microsystems / 1 Network Drive 71.232W Vox +1 781 442 2084 MS UBUR02-212 / Burlington MA 01803-2757 42.496N Fax +1 781 442 1677 _______________________________________________ networking-discuss mailing list [email protected]
