+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; (we have already the cooker's name poll), i think that some times the
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; polls are not able to guide the distribution to its goal, and the
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; decisions must be taken from the board team.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; My 2 cents
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; I completely agree, communities are great, but i think these stuff should
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; be advisable only, and we should get board members who can decide on
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; these things, because they are knowledgable in their own area.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; I don't think the community should be disregarded by the board, but
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; sometimes the board should decide differently by the community because
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; the community doesn't know everything.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Then it should know.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> I know this may sound like an innocent wish, but I mean it.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> The &quot;board&quot; will have to motivate every decision/move it takes -
+</I>&gt;<i> especially if this very decision was to go against most
+</I>&gt;<i> recommandations/wishes from the community (he, who knows, it may
+</I>&gt;<i> happen).
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> We expect Mageia, not to disclose, but to publish all information,
+</I>&gt;<i> data, metrics about the project, developement, tasks, maybe about
+</I>&gt;<i> product usage and about decisions. Or at least, not to keep them
+</I>&gt;<i> hidden on purpose.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> That will require to identify what useful metrics are and to
+</I>&gt;<i> understand them for what they're worth (and not). That will require
+</I>&gt;<i> some education on what metrics we can collect (think about privacy and
+</I>&gt;<i> right here), how we collect them, how we use and learn from these.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Not that it will be easy or without mistake at first. But that's what
+</I>&gt;<i> we expect as well.
+</I>
+I agree, if decision go against (or choosing the 2nd choice or something) the
+recommendation; i would expect the board members to explain their choice, tbh,
+i think this is common sense... i didn't even think it was required to do so.
+
+Of course, the rest of the community should also accept that the board has
+more expertise/knowledge on this, and if they explain sufficiently, it should be
+no problem.
+
+Of course, every choice they/we make, we'll never satisfy everyone, just
+remember that sometimes a compromise will be necessary and you should accept
+that (or start a public slander campaign :-D ).
