Peter.
I really don't get this list. The threads I have read on the Xen list suggest there is no problem with a discussion about the relative merits of KVM so why is everything so personal on this list? Something quite unhealthy is going on here, IMHO.
Its not that at all (to me).
Then again the Xen lists don't have ppl whining about a missed rel date with personal attaches about leadership.
I guess people are pretty happy with the way the Xen project is run.
The guys maintaining Centos have ownership of the project which results in a sense of pride and personal feelings about it.
They have every right to be pride; no doubt a phenomenal amount of work goes into CentOS and I don't think there is much/any gripe on this list of the quality of the finished article. But of course, pride can be an inhibitor as well..
Plus, I think it was the timing of the post regarding DAGs RHEL like project.
Tensions are indeed running high, so yeah.
There is an order of magnitude more traffic on this list then on the Xen list.
Erm, jury's out for me as to whether that would make a difference or not.
