I actually have read the document many times, and feel that it very successfully captures what is *required* to become a successful contributor. It is worded a bit harsh, but as Mike said, harsh is the reality that we live in. I also don't think the problem (if you want to call it that, it's the best word I could come up with, but probably not the right one) is limited to just Fedora - this document could broadly apply to *any* FOSS project out there. Perhaps some details would need to be tweaked, but the basic premise would be the same. _______________________________________________ advisory-board mailing list advisory-board@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/advisory-board
