The best example is Scientific Linux. There are schedules and an open development process.
What is the reason for the closed development process in CentOS?
Its funny you say that Morten, since you actually offered to help. Didnt you ? But then when I asked you to look at something specific, you backed off saying you had other things to do ( I remember being quite taken aback by your response at the time ).
If whoever wants to help out in a community project, and then see that when a task come and then gives a response that this was the wrong timing, due to other obligations - this is pretty fair response.
Committing to a community project does not mean you have the resources available for your disposal whenever you need it. People committing to a community project just gives you an idea that people are interested in helping out.
Why you dont you just stick to lurking, since you clearly dont actually want to do anything to help - just get in the way and try to make a lot of noise you dont either understand or want to put any effort into understanding.
Would you call that a fair take on the state of your envolvement Morten ?
Okay, I see that the CentOS developers are under a high pressure and stress level. Maybe a too high stress level. So I'm willing to stretch myself that far to see this incident in that light.
Even though I do not know the background for this attack, I do dislike this kind of personal attacks - at least in the full public. I'm disappointed to see such happening here by the key people in the CentOS community.
