That up to a point is needed obviously. But sometimes I miss a few introductions words on the "why" we want all of that and how it's supposed to make Fedora better. But that's obviously meta/abstract again, which I myself criticized earlier. So maybe it's simply this ted talk that stuck in my head too much: http://www.ted.com/talks/simon_sinek_how_great_leaders_inspire_action.html Cu knurd -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.22 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQIcBAEBCgAGBQJS46KJAAoJEHK25u9MWD0tf8oQAKamRcqVt8XTbh8TmjfWxqqc AeP5MVmJnhE9TEbgsenZUex0xo3dnRaU9prdF/delAVgL7ahCbIPWgKtKT3IsqsA GHygf8d046PM2+z8lFH8IAinK5KhikmRki/xS+3IknHEPWUKmGcFtIG13L2C32w/ VEZ+/IF70NEa2xe7jtg0QzH4uungZfVH6Gsl2WcsjnjC0BiqU5vkVjdDWKWCt+GD taAL5pNbO1TsuAhnNa4PL/eHJehEGUo1UrLv4FDnPFLm4v6Wex9VScd6Z2XQ6VLu I2Lw5RqU5m0kNPa5k4+gEABqDrqObK6Q+akwX/c97Tcus52SwmIQA4yHGHsIQy2c hSeg/mQyzZHabob909EPu2y6/m49uEpmU8sgb7QqQzIk77rKaUQrGloPSOTrAs6j TSMtZX/DkF6VZIBATSTtOJD7pL3jvCWOb66ueA+MJqGZdB3WiuB7En+9JTrhjYSe mEs9KORkYgyQniVTlhtVG9tu8/OFvt8ud+iq+FlAVzyHAfDofpC+w7WnkSSn3Mit wEEgsvuYx630z+HY2+aBBViU+/11D1G8lVBJqGINogPRxopTpN9EPCbvAOnHmwd3 iOqsPzsUjZCviXasjIrrj91QDXduS/N3sFCam1dq2CqXF692ampEzAfavu/VX9yB jfSdBXA1/7Vk/MLXgB6E =BoBF -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
