Your post strikes me as a clear-eyed analysis. I hope I read it as intended when I see "identical shared understanding" as different from "identical shared opinion". Some posts have come across as suggesting that a core development team (tricky to define) can ultimately do whatever it wants, independent of what anyone else thinks. It doesn't work like that. But it's also the case, as you say, that there are interests and goals competing with the goals that we might extract from just taking a poll of Racket users. There's going to be some difference of opinion. I'm offering one potential shared understanding and trying to explain it clearly. I read some posts as describing a different understanding, which is good and definitely the point of the discussion. I like to think I know the community well enough that I wouldn't put out an idea that's a complete non-starter, but we need to hear enough voices to know what's possible. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Racket Users" group.
