Communicating with others, even when they work on stuff +that you don't personally use (or even like!), is an essential part of +that process. Had you done this earlier then the current decisions +regarding cinnamon would have happened much sooner. + +Also if you don't really want to "get involved in the politics" then I'm +not sure what to say. Everyone has to be involved to some degree to help +steer things in the right direction that works for as many people as +possible. Without being involved you won't be able to represent the +projects you care about. We need people to take an active interest, but +if you're just interested in packaging stuff in a small bubble, separate +from everything else, then I'm not sure it would work out that well anyway. + +I hope you reconsider, but you *will* have to get more involved if you +want to do that.
