OK, let me get this straight... You are suggesting here that we are not losing enough developers for devrel/userrel to be bothered enough to start caring about WTH is going wrong here? Sure, after Flameeyes left we have pam + alsa pretty much unmaintained, we've lost a key KDE + sound apps developer + BSD lead; next we've lost metalgod who was a member of already pretty understaffed Gnome herd, one of 3 members of media-optical herd and sounds apps maintainer as well. Then a developer and founder of this distribution who rejoined just about a week ago ran away, scared when seeing the state of things. That's just for the past month. And you come here to tell us that people shouldn't get confused by these 'very few' retirements, that the sun in still shining nicely and we are recruiting people as always? And that you will continue silently watching the trolls team associated around mips and ciaranm call people fuckheads, idiots and making a gutter of something that's supposed to be a development mailing list? Ugh... well done. -- Best regards, Jakub Moc mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] GPG signature: http://subkeys.pgp.net:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0xCEBA3D9E Primary key fingerprint: D2D7 933C 9BA1 C95B 2C95 B30F 8717 D5FD CEBA 3D9E ... still no signature ;)
