Gah! YES!! Exactly this! Well said! And this attitude keeps getting echoed again and again from the current oligarchy TC! "We know what OpenStack is; we know the principles we operate under."

Gah! YES! Please pay attention! I know how it feels - I too want to focus *only* on THE MISSON: [from http://governance.openstack.org/reference/charter.html#openstack-project-teams ] > OpenStack “Project Teams” are groups of people dedicated to the > completion of the OpenStack project mission, which is ‘’to produce the > ubiquitous Open Source Cloud Computing platform that enables building > interoperable public and private clouds regardless of size, by being > simple to implement and massively scalable while serving the cloud > users’ needs.’’ Project Teams may create any code repository and produce > any deliverable they deem necessary to achieve their goals. ^ what an amazing mission!!! But remember, our mission must be "performed under the *oversight* of the TC" - the trick is - *we* elect that *representative* governance! Elections are next month people! http://governance.openstack.org/#current-members OpenStack for the Operators! Not OpenStack for OpenStack sake! -Clay
