In orchestra? The section leader would have a quiet chat with them, find out if it's a one-time emergency, or something. Maybe take them off the concert list? I don't really know; I haven't noticed it happening. AFAIK everybody has always been reasonable about it. > What will happen if we sign up to a team and not do our > "homework"? Same idea? Team leader has a chat with you, and in extreme cases would just stop assigning you work to do. I don't think this is a huge worry -- we're all reasonable people wanting to make lilypond better. > > If we had a central authority leading a team (or teams) of > > developers – or at least, leading developers for X hours a week – > > The question is, who will it be. *shrug* All I know is that it can't be me for the remainder of 2011. In the first place I'd be an iffy choice due to my relative inexperience with lilypond programming, but the main reason is that I'm needed to run GOP and GLISS. We could have rotating leaders -- Carl for a month while they work on fret stuff, Neil for two months while they work on fundamental scheme stuff, Keith for a month while they work on spacing stuff, Bertrand for a month while they work on ancient notation? A lot would depend on who, if anybody, wanted to volunteer for both "team leader" positions and "team member" positions. > What about new contributors? It would be bad to tell them "you want > get much help on this during next 5 months, come back again in > December when we'll discuss fonts." This would be in addition to the normal "help" we give to contributors. So your job as Frog Meister would continue, the job of the Patch Meister would continue to put stuff on countdowns, and the shared job of "reviewing stuff that will be pushed in 48 hours if nobody finds a mistake" will continue. > Additional idea: when there are teams, work can be split.
