The question here is flexibility:

* OpenSC used to have a very flexible approach. OpenSC is NOT kernel.org
with thousands of developers and no need for hierarchy.

* Setting-up a compilation farm is no reason for closing write access to
historical developers of OpenSC.

* Discussions are the base of Free Software. Once discussions have
occurred, there should be several people with write access. You have to
trust people. No need to lock write access to the main GIT.

From my point of view, OpenSC is becoming a semi-private project with
two people in charge: Ludovic and Martin. Personally, I don't want
OpenSC to be organized the same way as libccid. 

We demand more freedom and transparency or this can only lead to endless
flamewars.

Keep in mind that before doing business, I have been a politician
fighting during 4 years for more freedom. Now I am retired, but if need
be, we will create a charity for OpenSC and organize a duly elected
board. I am not talking about a fork, which will never happen, but about
elections. 

Kind regards,
