You seem to want to escalate issues with Fedora and it's governance as a whole when all we're discussing at this point is Fedora Extras and how it should be run. Extras was around before either of those examples happened. It's also the largest community driven project within Fedora itself. I believe (and I could be mistaken here) that it is also the first official Fedora project to be chaired by someone outside of Red Hat.(1) My point is, Extras seems to move along at it's own pace and the on-goings of how Red Hat is dealing with things don't appear to have a large detrimental impact. We're talking about how we, the Extras community, want to govern ourselves. Leave Red Hat out of this discussion please. josh (1) Jesse Keating is the chair of the Legacy project and was so before being hired by Red Hat. However I believe it got official Fedora project status after Extras did. -- fedora-extras-list mailing list fedora-extras-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-extras-list
