If you think there’s snark in my reply, you’ve misinterpreted it as I’m dead serious. Instead of letting personal opinions on awards because of what sounds like a bad personal experience indicates to me the real benefit if the proposal was missed, and why put down an idea that promotes pride in one's work?
That is not the ASF I know. The ASF I know is board members personally showing me around when I had a very uninteresting project that turned into a podling. It helps encourage involvement in contributions to open source, the whole point of the badge. Also, his assessment was completely based on personal opinion, nothing to do with benefit or no benefit to the ASF. Putting down good ideas is more damaging to focus soon than me asking for real facts when presented with personal convictions. Thanks for the etiquette suggestion. Regardless of your suggestions, on etiquette, It seems the majority is in favor. So now we vote?
