<PRE>Le vendredi 24 septembre 2010 &#224; 12:42 -0400, Marc Par&#233; a &#233;crit :
&gt;<i> &gt; It took something like 6 months to produce the page you gave. And Fedora people have
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; also worked on this since a long time.
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; Our project as announced less than a week ago, and there is lots of work
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; to do to get basic infrastructure, answer mails and so on.
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; So could people please start to consider that we are only human living
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; in a world with 24h a day, and therefor, that everything cannot be yet written,
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; and that we should rush important document like this ?
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> I think the biggest problem here is that for most of the people, both on 
</I>&gt;<i> the ML and GMane, the core group individuals are still a mystery. There 
</I>&gt;<i> is no note on any of the pages identifying the initial organisers of the 
</I>&gt;<i> Mageia project.
</I>
Well, that was roughly a subset of the list of people in the first
announcement ( before we started to add people ).

&gt;<i> If this were published and public on the mageia.org page, then there 
</I>&gt;<i> would probably be fewer questions. In fact, I think the core group is 
</I>&gt;<i> making it more frustrating to themselves by not communicating clearly 
</I>&gt;<i> who is behind the organising &quot;right at this moment&quot;. This would leave to 
</I>&gt;<i> such comments as you have said and heard from other individuals &quot;So 
</I>&gt;<i> could people please ....&quot; be patient.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> The communication to the community should be clearer from the core 
</I>&gt;<i> group. This is a necessity.
</I>
Well, I am here to tirelessly read all mails on the ml and answer to
those I think I can answer, and I think you may have overlooked when I
presented myself on the ml.

IMHO, saying &quot;I am also involved in the
launch of the Mageia project since the start some months ago.&quot; was a
clear message. 

While I would not present or consider myself as &quot;core&quot; based on
egalitarian beliefs, I think that for most people, I am considered like
it.

So except answers to questions that are not decided yet, what do you
expect ?

&gt;<i> There should also be a regular representative who reports back to the 
</I>&gt;<i> community. I think Anne is well known and respected and would be the 
</I>&gt;<i> most logical choice for this. AND someone to replace Anne when she is 
</I>&gt;<i> not able to do this after her working day. You need 24hrs a day 
</I>&gt;<i> representation on the ML and GMane. I did notice that once the Europeans 
</I>&gt;<i> are off and (obviously) at sleep, North Americans are on. You need to 
</I>&gt;<i> find a way to service your community 24hrs/day.
</I>
I think people are perfectly able to wait a few hours before getting a
response from a community effort, don't you  ?

Shall I remind the voluntary part of the engagement of most people on
the list ?
