Hi all. The Ombudsman project have grown thinner with some members leaving Gentoo and others not having as much time for it as they used to. Ombudsman and Developer Relations have therefore made a joint decision to end the Ombudsman project and instead move conflict mediation to Developer Relations itself.
It is our hope that the decision to close the Ombudsman project and incorporate the mediation function more directly in Developer Relations will help strengthen that part as more people will be able to help on any given case. We've made a few small changes to the Conflict Resolution policy to reflect these changes and make sure that mediation is still an important part of resolving conflicts. The updated policy is available at http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/devrel/policy.xml. Finally I'd like to thank Grant (g2boojum), Seemant and Michael (marineam) for their great work as Ombudsman and welcome Michael as an official member of Developer Relations conflict resolution team.
