I think your right. Anyway we cut it, awards are somewhat arbitrary since we aren't going to get the perfect metric of what the workload really looks like. I love plotting things, just because I love data, but I don't necessarily like personalizing the data. A lottery encodes the arbitrariness into the "award" process to some extent. Taken this idea further, we could invest in one of those big air chambers like you see on cheesy gameshows and fill it with little scraps of paper with a reviewers name, one scrap of paper is a ticket in the lottery. Paul walks into the chamber, the air turns on and he randomly grabs X number of flying scraps of paper. All of this on video of course. -jef"Is it wrong that I think of the packaging process as akin to the old Double Dare obstacle course, 'the messiest minute on television' ?"spaleta -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
