I am really sorry that I made you feel bad about what I wrote, I didn't mean to do that. I actually completely agree with you that this aspect of the thread was derailing the conversation, and I tried to use reductio ad absurdum to demonstrate how ridiculous it can get if we focus on perfecting author attribution instead of discussing collaboration. I should have been more explicit in indicating that I didn't actually mean this as a serious question. Lets write it off as a bad joke that didn't make it across the language barrier. > It does cause frustration because, as you can read from Emiliem's > original email, it not just adds some extra burden to people in the > puppet team but it also defeates the purposes of the team itself, > which is creating OpenStack puppet manifests that are consumable by > everyone. Now I see that we're on the same page. I agree that it does add extra burden, and even though we've done what we could to reduce that burden in the process I've described earlier, the only way to eliminate it completely is to use upstream Puppet modules in Fuel directly and without Fuel specific modifications. I see a broad consensus on this thread in favor of setting this as the end goal, and I gladly join that sentiment. To prove that I'm not merely trying to placate you, here's what I had to say about this to the Fuel team back in March 2014 when we first came up with our current process for tracking upsteam: https://lists.launchpad.net/fuel-dev/msg00727.html Peace? -- Dmitry Borodaenko __________________________________________________________________________ OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) Unsubscribe: openstack-dev-requ...@lists.openstack.org?subject:unsubscribe http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
