Brainstorm is great, and lots of good comes out of it. There are many cases where knowing what lots of people think, or creating a forum for *anybody* to publish their ideas, is useful. My point to fewt is simply that there are also many areas where we explicitly don't run things by vote or consensus. Ubuntu is plenty big enough that there is an area where anybody can make themselves an expert, take on responsibility, and lead. But it's also big enough that if we try to make everybody feel like they can weigh in on *every* decision, we'll grind to a halt. This is a flashpoint, but most decisions are not as contentious as this one. I'm backing this decision because I think it's the right one in the long term. It may be right, it may be wrong, but I have a mandate to take the decision. The same is true of our kernel lead, and our community governance leads. They are fallible (I certainly am) but they are nevertheless empowered to take decisions.
