Forgive me, but that statement sort of sounds like you saying "Democrats should represent Republicans too, because they _might_ have elected you." We have townhalls. We answer questions from voters. Our opinions are stated during discussions in mailing lists, and IRC, and in calls. Being elected by your peers does not mean you change the entire point of view that got you elected in the first place. josh -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
