You raise many good points some of which are very true and some of which I do not completely agree with. This happens to be on the top of things with which I do not agree... The reason why I contribute (be it code, patches, helping on d-u, writing articles etc.,) to Debian is because I enjoy doing so. Not because one day I dream of becoming a DD, not because I get good reputation points, not because I make money out of it etc., If some documentation editor becomes less motivated to contribute to Debian simply because, there is no official status given to him, I seriously doubt if his motivation levels remain high after couple of years... raju -- Kamaraju S Kusumanchi http://www.people.cornell.edu/pages/kk288/ http://malayamaarutham.blogspot.com/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Click to receive credit card help and get out of debt fast: http://tags.bluebottle.com/fc/CAaCMPJkiZqBdK4Dw9SRzzZnJvPp1R1i/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
