However threatening to leave the project > if various things aren't done exactly one's way isn't very respectful either. I personnally think that both are ok. Since it is free software and many people are benevolent, having people threaten to use their time differently if something isn't done their way is ok, in my opinion, since it is t e only credible threat for benevolent people to have an effect on decisions. Voting is the other way, bt nothing beats a credible threat. At the same time accepting that people leave when they are not ok with the outcome of decisions isn't more unfair. People in FESCo/FAB should integrate the risk of having people leave against the risk of having other people leave and against what user will do and their objectives. -- Pat -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
