How? You are assuming that everyone on the mailinglist knew you were on IRC (not everyone uses that, only the core people seem to), or that they know your work email or phone (i haven't a clue what you do for work, nor do i really care). The point is the onus was on YOU to communicate after the issue was raised, not the other way around. > Instead of spending effort to say that we're down and working on it > (people already KNEW we were down, and people DID know I was working > on it), I chose instead to WORK on it. BINGO! Your definition of who knew is different than mine. You *thought* everyone knew when in fact they didn't. Yes some people did know, those people should have stepped up to the plate and told the mailinglist as well. Is this the Jesse Legacy project or is this a larger team effort? You, Jesse Keating, don't need to be doing everything, there needs to be some *organized* structure for FL to endure. > Now I've spent even MORE effort trying to stay calm and answer your > statements, when instead I could have been doing something far more > constructive, like spearheading our migration over to Red Hat's bugzilla > system, fixing some build scripts, allocating our x86_64 build system, > discussing our CVS commit access for FC trees etc...

Frankly, I would rather see you delegate some responsibility to others and then you take some time to define and setup an organization before doing anything else. As I said before you can't be the chief cook and bottle washer too. Going forward please communicate to the mailinglist or let the mailinglist know that you don't consider it worthy of keeping informed. In my opinion the crux of FL should be discussed and announced on the mailinglists first. -Jim P. -- fedora-legacy-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-legacy-list
