Maybe thats an old-fashioned sentiment in this > time and day... Clearly the discussion is focusing on the wrong thing. I've no desire to mandate the minute by minute activity of all contributors be tracked. We do not need that level of granularity for resource planning. Voluntary details of individual contributor activities would certainly help if we we talking about building a competitive recognition system..but that's is not what we are talking about doing. I am not talking about collecting trending information in a way that directly compares the value of individual contributions. I'm talking about making an effort to collect information on a subgroup impact and growth for overall project planning purposes so we can have more information to work with for resource planning and perhaps to get ahead of bottlenecks in subgroup interactions.. I've no desire to mandate to subgroups what specific metric to trend. I'd much rather prefer that individual subgroups tell me what metric to trend. What I need is for individual subgroups to value the value of trending the work they are doing as a group so they will incorporate a metric that is relevant into their workflow. -jef _______________________________________________ fedora-advisory-board mailing list fedora-advisory-board@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-advisory-board
