I answered why that is in subsequent emails.

You keep making that typo, or if it isn't a typo I really have no idea what you mean. Anyway, I said I interpreted the question as such because the word personnel is defined as: "The body of persons employed by or active in an organization, business, or service." employed being the key word. Words mean things. Volunteers are not employees. > That's... Interesting to say the least.. Not really. Employed and volunteer contributors are all part of the same community. Eric's reply also pointed out that the question seemed to be posed rather pointedly. If you meant to ask some other question other than what I've interpreted, please clarify. josh _______________________________________________ advisory-board mailing list advisory-board@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/advisory-board
