It's cool for us to make statements about what we believe, but endorsing, or attacking, particular politicians is not only contrary to our non-profit standing, but there are individuals within our community who are supporters of the president-elect, and who voted for him. Do we reject those people from our community because we disagree with their political leanings? We are not a political organization, and we must not become one. --Rich -- Rich Bowen - rbo...@rcbowen.com - @rbowen http://apachecon.com/ - @apachecon --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@community.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@community.apache.org
