ITwrx.org,

health? AL is not an organism, it is an OS. what you meant to say is problems.

yes, it is true. there are a few problems, but these problems were not caused by
a lack of funds.

these are the reasons there are problems:

1. there are a few AL TMs (team members), that wanted to become, became, and still are
AL TMs because they are selfish.

these TMs are here, because they want to indirectly benefit financially from this
membership, and/or for the 'bragging rights', and/or because they want to continue
to have the 'power' that an AL TM has.

the rest of the TMs are here because they care about AL, the community, and progress.

2. both groups of AL TMs have different workloads and not always a lot of free time.
changes in circumstances can and will determine how much work must be done and how
much free time a TM has to do AL work.

3. ignorance and/or stupidity.


now, the good thing is that these problems have solutions.

one of the things we can do to help solve these problems (and make their workloads
smaller), is with user sign-offs.[1]

this way, Tobias Powalowski, for example, will stop placing the linux pkg in testing for
stable minor releases.
