I think the LWG is more than well aware that they are imperfect human
beings volunteering in a horrible environment to make things better.
They're well aware that people have little time to help on a
week-to-week basis for multiple years. Which is what they've been doing.
There are indeed many resources in the community but they don't
magically come together. You have to turn up at a workshop, to a meeting
or a phone call. Everyone here is more than capable of that. You'd be
welcomed and we would love your help in making things better.
That's not to say every critique has to be met with a demand you come
volunteer to fix it, but that is the easiest and quickest way generally
to do so.
I'd take a long look at how you have sucked up the LWGs time, Tim,
before you make these kinds of statements.

Why do you need to do that? Why don't you e-mail LWG and say: "I think
you've been having difficulties with your communications. I'd like to
volunteer to be your communications officer. I'll sit in on your weekly
meetings, draw up a comms plan, and be responsible for carrying it
through"?

It would be nice if the committee would be aware of this long standing
problems and as for help from the community too. We have considerable
human resources in the community and if people are over worked,
perhaps they should delegate more?
Also, it can be that someone tried to do something they think
constructive, they risk the ire of someone else who believes it should
be done differently. Credo experto - believe me, i've tried.
