</I>
This is true, it always annoyed me that the meetings were at a time
when I could hardly if ever make it. I do see your point, and I guess
that I haven't been at the point of this frustration.
Either way, hopefully this will solve the problem.

</I>>><i> While I realise that the release has been tough and stressful on many
</I>>><i> people and mageia isnt the only thing they need to deal with, but the in
</I>>><i> fighting and negative feel that has appeared recently must stop if this team
</I>>><i> is to grow and work together.
</I>><i>
</I>><i>
</I>><i> I agree. But we should also learn from our past mistakes, that's why we make
</I>><i> them.
</I>><i> Bringing up an issue is the first, and most important, step in learning from
</I>><i> one's mistakes.
</I>><i>
</I>The lessons are hopefully really obvious, we need to communicate more,
otherwise we end up with frustration and work going in circles.
We should probably leave this discussion for now and focus on founding
the new group.

</I>>><i> I like thw idea of no meetings and working on stuff yourself, but we must

</I>><i>
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Indeed.
