How can 13,000+ active community members all lead a single project?
Why have a board at all[1]? I think the community leading was great
back when there weren't that many of us but now I really do think it's
hurting people. I'm happy to continue to aid in leading the
infrastructure team but where are we going and for what ultimate
purpose.
I just look at this thread in a sort of stunned awe.
It wasn't that long ago before we were scrambling to have any community
invovlement at all.
Now we're trying to figure out how to articulate a coherent vision on
behalf of 13,000 people -- a number that continues to grow, by the way,
despite the occasional doubts that we feel about whether we are on the
right track.
This is an extremely high-class problem to have. I'm exceedingly grateful
that we continue to be relevant enough to have this kind of conversation.
