Interesting comment, albeit somewhat over the top. Do remember that with the last FESCo "election" primarily we just filled vacant seats in a very half-hearted and controversial way. Before the next election a lot must happen. The FE developer community needs means to measure whether they are happy with the elected representatives. That is not possible when FESCo's decision-finding process is not documented, when some FESCo members either abstain from voting often or always [or because they are absent from a high number of public meetings], and when this leads to sort of anonymous FESCo decisions (where only with high effort or luck you find nothing more than a few +1/-1 votes in meeting-minutes). At the topic of FESCo, just a few days ago I was surprised that I could not find the FESCo members' mission statements anymore. It turned out the page was deleted without any (or without an easy-to-find) replacement: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Extras/SteeringCommittee/Nominations?action=recall&rev=27 -- Fedora-maintainers mailing list Fedora-maintainers@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-maintainers -- Fedora-maintainers-readonly mailing list Fedora-maintainers-readonly@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-maintainers-readonly
