As the instigator of the branding project, I'd love to get to that point in 2 weeks. But, I'm not sure the discussion there has managed to progress beyond the "massive email about past, present and future slights, omissions and bad behavior" stage and into a serious discussion about specifics. At this point, only three or four people (myself included) have made specific suggestions and/or proposals; they have been incorporated into the wiki. Unfortunately, judging from the majority of the discussion, nobody else has read any of it. If this doesn't change, I'm unwilling to take my half-baked, decidedly one-sided perspective and rush it out for a vote as if it was something that reflected the intent of the community. It needs to honestly reflect that intent, not try to dictate it. And I need y'all to help it become such a proposal. I'm also unwilling to push this off until Indiana is at the point where it couldn't be modified to reflect the outcome of a vote; I hate playing chicken with projects that are trying to game the system. So, +1, except that your 2 week deadline may need to be something like in a month; most certainly before the end of the calendar year. -John _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
