s/Communities/Groups/ but yes. It's not a "promotion", however, just a restructuring. Projects and Groups represent different things; they are not inferior and superior representations of the same things. If this restructuring is approved, we'll simply be acknowledging what your proposal stated at the beginning: a Group is a better fit than a Project. > If the Core Contribs of this Community wish to take on the role of OS.o > Editorial board, more power to them! That would need to be reconciled with the fact that there is now an OGB Committee authorized to perform this function. And I'm not convinced that the content and infrastructure are (or should be) inextricably linked or should be the responsibility of the same people. That's like saying that typewriter manufacturers and writers should be one and the same because they're both involved in typing letters onto paper. Otherwise the proposal as a whole looks sound and reasonable. -- Keith M Wesolowski "Sir, we're surrounded!" FishWorks "Excellent; we can attack in any direction!"
