Please understand I'm not trying to silence honest criticism at all, and I'm not against learning lessons from history. I certainly could have worded it better, but I guess what I'm trying to say is that making a list of past grievances *without* ideas and suggestions for moving forward isn't as useful (at least to me) as a list of possible solutions or ideas for making things better in the future. -- Jared Smith Fedora Project Leader _______________________________________________ advisory-board mailing list advisory-board@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/advisory-board
