Perhaps the Council should stop going out of their way to screw around with people when they do do something then. They could, for example, stop trying to impose arbitrary, meaningless changes to which version control system PMS uses (an issue which is of no technical relevance). Perhaps that might stop dissuading contributions from people who can't be bothered having to deal with silly political meddling from a Council which is supposed to be providing technical assistance... Similarly, they could help take care of all the silly arguments that are being foisted off against attempts to provide a decent, adaptable replacement for Gentoo's biggest stalling point. > What *does* impact us severely is the perception that we're not doing > anything about our problems.

Perhaps you should do something about something that really is a problem then, instead of wasting everyone's time on irrelevant issues and blatantly false copyright claims. -- Ciaran McCreesh
