Easier still for a bystander to criticize to jeer and > mock from the sidelines When people state the project can do better, who did translate "the project" to "Johnny" or "Karanbir" ? Nobody did, except Johnny and Karanbir. Nobody is asking Johnny or Karanbir to work harder, that's the fallacy. But only Johnny and Karanbir can change how this project is organized at the moment and the project is currently organized in such a way that if we want more timely releases and updates, or we want better communication, or we want more transparancy, Johnny and Karanbir will have to work harder. It doesn't have to be like this, but it feels like certain forces want to keep things framed like this in discussions. -- -- dag wieers, dag at wieers.com, http://dag.wieers.com/ -- dagit linux solutions, info at dagit.net, http://dagit.net/ [Any errors in spelling, tact or fact are transmission errors]
