Hi victor

There will be no close door meetings. I really want that people say what they want to say.
Now I like when people say something with code attached :)

Just for the record, long long time ago in another galaxy three guys (stef, marcus and mike) started to think about a squeakfoundation. They wrote a chart and other silly documents. Then we mention it publicly and mike had to drop the ball for personal reason. The point of the squeakfoundation he had in mind was ok how people spending the time and energy
in the community can protect from people just talking and wanting stuff.

I have the impression we really should care about transparency.
Announcing a board and a board "model" without any prior announcement or
discussion is not very sensible to other people involved.

I agree completely, transparency is very important.

Please, please no closed-door meetings!

I also agree that the project needs strong leadership and should not
be "democratic".  As long as decisions follow consensus most of the
time, the project ought to stay healthy.

Best Regards,

Victor Rodriguez.


I can live with this board but e.g. I want to know what/where put
Marcus and Michael in charge? Both are rather absent from this list
and Marcus is "recovering slowly". If there were any decisions that
must have been made while meeting in personal or by private email.
That's what I mean. Please correct me if I missed something important.

Maybe it is just whining from my site and not worth it. But I'm really
sensible to such things and I (too) must organize very well where to
spend my spare time.

Hello everybody

We are happy to announce a board for Pharo! So far, Pharo has mainly
been "directed" by Stef who initiated
 the project. Now that the community grows and Pharo makes progress,
the board will bring some more
structure into the decision making process.

We don't have bylaws or any rules written down yet but the idea is to
run it similar to the Apache board. That
is, new board members are elected by existing board members. The
rational is that we want to assure continuity
to be able to steadily push Pharo forward.

The current board members are:
- Marcus Denker
- Stefane Ducasse
- Adrian Lienhard
- Michael Rueger

Stef
