I think you are taking for a brain dead or some stupid PR out there.

It just took a very long time. Think of it as a normal "is > this idea possible" chat that took place in very, very, very slow motion. There is no discussion, there is no chat. You (as group) simply refuse to answer the most obvious questions. Tell us the names of these entities, companies or persons, who are going to contribute and what are actually their requirements. What will they bring (saying "expertise" is not something I can buy)? I don't understand what is so hard to understand that it is a minimum to get before we can even discuss the CLA introduction. Let alone the fact that they don't consider us as good enough as discussions partner.
