It's not council work, but I'll continue to try to make Gentoo better for everyone, at least in my little corner. :) Articles, articles, and more articles please! ;-) ~C -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

I'm sure I'd take the same approach that I would to everything else I do; do the job that's before me, but I don't think I'd be able to devote enough time to do a *good* job. I've no problem doing any necessary keelhauling etc., but I'm not sure that I have the time. And no matter how fast I'd try to learn, I'm not starting off with the same detailed knowledge of ebuilds and Portage that the other candidates have.

While any efforts you put forth if elected to the council will appreciated. Let's not take a malicious stance against our current council. I don't thing they are intentionally alienating, or delaying in summaries. Anyone notice no more GWNs? IMHO they like many of us are simply over committed. So things don't always get done in reasonable or ideal time frames. I doubt there is any intentional delay in presenting the summaries and etc. Then again, their meetings aren't held in private, and one should not solely rely on summaries.

GWN (was: Re: [gentoo-dev] Nominations open for the Gentoo Council 2007/08)
* William L. Thomson Jr. [EMAIL PROTECTED] [07/07/14 13:29 -0400]: Anyone notice no more GWNs? Well, I noticed it. And I read the news from June 14 on http://www.gentoo.org/ Unfortunately, all our GWN-Editors stop working on it after some months. It's a really time-consuming job. Think about four to five hours just for collecting all articles, put some glue between them, create the XML and posting it on the list. And count in another four to five hours for writing most of the stuff yourself (which is the default, as the contributions are very rare). So, currently we don't have a GWN for two months already. It was our main publicity medium for telling users about the current development inside Gentoo, showing the faces of some devs and notice them about updates in the tree. We have other media which can compensate the GWN, like the Forums, the GLSAs, the dev-mailinglist etc. But the GWN was a good compendium of all. Don't let it die!
