</div>Then it should know.<br>
<br>
I know this may sound like an innocent wish, but I mean it.<br>
<br>
The "board" will have to motivate every decision/move it takes -<br>
especially if this very decision was to go against most<br>
recommandations/wishes from the community (he, who knows, it may<br>
happen).<br>
<br>
We expect Mageia, not to disclose, but to publish all information,<br>
data, metrics about the project, developement, tasks, maybe about<br>
product usage and about decisions. Or at least, not to keep them<br>
hidden on purpose.<br>
<br>
That will require to identify what useful metrics are and to<br>
understand them for what they're worth (and not). That will require<br>
some education on what metrics we can collect (think about privacy and<br>
right here), how we collect them, how we use and learn from these.<br>
<br>
Not that it will be easy or without mistake at first. But that's what<br>
we expect as well.<br>
