I try not to post my real name on the internet. I'm basically asking for commit access for user sub page space for formatting, & staging of documents for management review. When I'm actually @ linbit ill probably start the motions to have an official account something like "linbit-usa" to publish the works under. I'm used to mediawiki, moinmoin wiki is new to me.

...some 3rd world cesspit, then report back on how that worked out. No one reading this list is likely to be ?unvaccinated?, but they?ll surely be annoyed if they need to install an ?unvaccinated? machine on a properly secured network. Leave security to the end-user. The Internet has always been a meritocracy and using a decent password isn?t exactly a high bar to jump. It?s really none of the OS?s business. Nate

Dear Arc, I feel ashamed of the xiph community. I was always one standing up for the open audio-visual codecs and applications that were developed here and I felt part of that community by contributing. There have been an enormous number of people contributing to xiph specifications and software over the years. Your emails have been an insult to every contributor to xiph that is not in the

The vast majority of Free Software and Open Source projects are meritocracies. Certain people get to positions of power in these projects through a combination of good coding/ debugging/documentation and simultaneously an ability to work well with

...his has coloured the present discussion. That he is posting from a xiph.org email address is of no special significance here; I think most of us would agree with you that he hasn't been speaking for the consensus, and we wouldn't want to officially recommend the current draft. I think the meritocracy is functioning here, if not smoothly. IMO, -r

...ubbornness represents only himself. Arc, I really dislike the way you've behaved, especially towards Zen (your off-list threat to Zen is simply unacceptable) and Erik. You have no authority whatsoever over anyone here and you (should) know it. As some pointed out, Xiph is meant to be a sort of meritocracy and so far I have yet to see anything worthwhile that you implemented. Also, the fact that you are probably the *least* qualified for writing OggPCM, means *you* should have listened to what other people were saying much more than the other way round. Just pushing things like that as "Xiph sta...

Hi, How about creating another mailing list to let people vent themselves? It would make it easier for everyone, since technical/troubleshooting issues and opinions target different people. This messages is a test as well. I couldn't write to the list through gmane so I corrected the address with gmane admin. Hope this works. Regards,

...fied to determine if they were usable and the ?winning? name was also a strongly disliked name. Kristian and I each proposed a plan to select a name, but that effort got sidetracked by a massive flame war on the mailing list. While our community has some democratic features, ultimately it is a meritocracy and the people who contribute the most value have the most say. So in the end a decision was made by the majority of the people who have contributed the most. That doesn't mean that all the discussion was wasted. In fact the chosen name wasn't proposed by any of the leaders, but was pro...

Hello everyone, We are in the process of formalizing the governance model of the GlusterFS project. Historically, the governance of the project has been loosely structured. This is an invitation to all of you to participate in this discussion and provide your feedback and suggestions on how we should evolve a formal model. Feedback from this thread will be considered to the extent possible in

Hi Everyone, Numerous people have been bringing up challenges with consensus driven decision making in the LLVM community. After considering this and seeing the frustrations it is causing many people, I think we should make a formal process change to help improve decision making going forward. Here is the outline of the draft proposal

Dear Community, I recently started thinking about how to make a project like CentOS more transparent and open (especially for new contributors). The http://wiki.centos.org/Team page (which Dag created about a year ago) lists about 20 (more or less active) members, divided into core and community contributors. I personally do not like that kind of distinction. Of course there should be something
