Open Letter to Lance Davis
July 30, 2009 04:39 UTC
This is an Open Letter to Lance Davis from fellow CentOS Developers It is
regrettable that we are forced to send this letter but we are left with
no other options. For some time now we have been attempting to resolve
these problems:
You seem to have crawled into a hole ... and this is not acceptable.
You have long promised a statement of CentOS project funds; to this date
this has not appeared.
You hold sole control of the centos.org domain with no deputy; this is
not proper.
You have, it seems, sole 'Founders' rights in the IRC channels with no
deputy ; this is not proper.
When I (Russ) try to call the phone numbers for UK Linux, and for you
individually, I get a telco intercept 'Lines are temporarily busy' for
the last two weeks. Finally yesterday, a voicemail in your voice picked
up, and I left a message urgently requesting a reply. Karanbir also
reports calling and leaving messages without your reply.
Please do not kill CentOS through your fear of shared management of the
project.
Clearly the project dies if all the developers walk away.
Please contact me, or any other signer of this letter at once, to arrange
for the required information to keep the project alive at the
'centos.org' domain.
Sincerely,
Russ Herrold
