Just catching up on email after grabbing a quick breakfast. I did give people permission to make uncontroversial changes, and asked them to discuss here first and work to find consensus before applying those changes. I continue to encourage people to do such. I specifically encourage people who have put their name on the page to do so. I encourage Simon to not only continue to do so, but also to put his name on the page in the section on committers. Not because I always agree with what Simon has to say but because I often don't, and I value diversity. If anybody wishes to make a substantially different proposal, I ask them to find a sponsor and create a separate page. Heck, I might even sponsor both if they each seem worthwhile. Even if they compete with one another. - Sam Ruby > On Jun 6, 2011, at 9:16 AM, Joe Schaefer wrote: > >> FWIW, IMO it's Sam's call as he is the sponsor.
