I see you've taken this as an US vs THEM stance again. It's not. The fact is there _are_ community people in the release team and as far as I've seen they're just as interested in just getting work done than spending the next 2 weeks arguing over how to structure the governance, meeting schedule, voting style, reporting officers, etc... In fact, I'd go so far as to say that everybody _but_ me in the group is a community member. I am the only person that is paid to release engineer Fedora. Everybody else participates outside their normal day job which would make them community members regardless of who their employer is. -- Jesse Keating Release Engineer: Fedora
