That analogy seems right to me, FESCo is more than an engineering body, but doesn't take the really important decisions. > Do you see much sense a in a government having an elected Tax > Administration? - I don't. It may make sense. If the information regarding the suitability of the potential administrators is spread over the community, like it is the case in fedora where some information is gained through inter-personal relations in reviews or in private. Maybe it could be part appointed by FPB, part elected to gather advice from the community. However it should be clear that it isn't a representativeness issue, but a mere choice issue. There are countries where some people of the administration are elected (I think it is the case in the US). -- Pat -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
