I may be over-generalizing my own case, but I don't think that the issue is a 'micro'-management issue. In case of long time fedora contributors interested in a specific area, I'd conjecture that there is a more in-depth disagreement about the place of the object of interest (here Mono) in Fedora. The will to leave may be partly based on a specific badly managed event, but it is likely to be a broader perspective integrating many interactions in the Fedora community that leads to the conclusion that it is not in Fedora that the energy is best spent integrating a given component, here Mono. -- Pat -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
