Couldn't agree more... Fedora seems to have too much "bureaucracy" for
contributors to, well, contribute. Some might say that it is standard
bureaucracy, but still quite cumbersome at times. Not that it is difficult,
just messy and cumbersome at times. I know that the "others are not so
bureaucratic" argument means nothing, at least to the many Fedora
contributors and community members, but I've seen my share of complaints from
"would be" contributors about just that.
Anyone want to gather the specific complaints in that regard?
I know we're working on some issues -- improving the CLA, working on a new
account management system, other small things -- but knowing the pain
points of new contributors is always important.
