Due to the choice of words, it's a rather extreme scenario, but only through such controversial decisions (that means a couple of -1 from board/committee members) the community can learn whether their elected representatives perform well. The typical series of +1 accompanied with a bit of Q&A and jokes is not so interesting. A different albeit similar scenario would be that FESCo members get brain-washed into nodding through a decision that creates community uproar. Then, if the FPB community reps sleep or don't have the guts to intervene, *that* would be interesting input for the voters. I'm not interested in a "RH vs. community" thing, though, and as such I see the FPB as a team, not as opponents. _______________________________________________ fedora-advisory-board mailing list fedora-advisory-board@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-advisory-board
