<PRE>Hi Esteban,
I'm really sorry you're feeling excluded, especially after all your
hard work. Your splash screens are great, and it would be grand if we
could use them in future - and it would be even greater if you could
bring yourself to stay part of the marketing and/or artwork teams,
although I understand if you don't want to.
I hope we'll keep hearing from you, and that you'll consider keeping on
working with us.
Thanks once again for your hard work!
Cheers,
Patricia.
><i> Hi,
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Alfter being treated twice as a guy who can't work in a community I
</I>><i> have no other choice but to leave the community. But let me explain
</I>><i> something before I remove my subscriptions to the lists. I joined the
</I>><i> Mageia Marketing list trying to give back something to the
</I>><i> distribution. My schedule constraints, due to my daily job and
</I>><i> geographic location, makes it almost impossible to join the chats. My
</I>><i> only reference is what I receive from the mail messages of the list,
</I>><i> when I can read them. One day I noticed that Mageia needed better
</I>><i> splash screens and I saw an opportunity to help. I draw a couple of
</I>><i> screens and suggest some texts. The guys from Marketing ask me to
</I>><i> join then the Artwork list as well. I rushed to create a set of
</I>><i> screens and mail them to both lists before the deadline. Then I read
</I>><i> that my screens didn't fit something (nobody has yet explained me
</I>><i> what they didn't fit) and I rushed again to create a new set of
</I>><i> screens trying to fix what i guess was wrong with the first set.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Maybe you're right and I'm not a community material. Maybe I joined
</I>><i> without knowing how a community distribution work. Or maybe what I
</I>><i> needed was a little introduction to how a community distribution
</I>><i> works and what the rules are. But, after reading a couple of "not so
</I>><i> nice" messages regarding my contribution to Mageia I feel that this
</I>><i> is a community I don't want to belong.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Good luck with Mageia.
</I>><i>

</I>><i> > OK, time is of the essence, but here is where we stand:
</I>><i> > We will be using Guala's images for the installer for Mga2. There
</I>><i> > are several reasons behind this decision, but chief among them is
</I>><i> > the fact that those images were a group effort by the entire
</I>><i> > artwork and marcom teams. Esteban, we greatly appreciate all the
</I>><i> > hard work that you put in, and certainly the initiative that you
</I>><i> > showed. But Mageia is a community distribution, and that means that
</I>><i> > it is a team effort. A community is not merely a collection of
</I>><i> > individuals, but a group of people who work together. Esteban, you
</I>><i> > are clearly a very talented person and we would be more than happy
</I>><i> > if you were to join the artwork team and continue to contribute. I
</I>><i> > for one look forward to working with you in the future, but it
</I>><i> > needs to be done as part of a team. We'll probably hold on to those
</I>><i> > images of yours and use them (or a slight variation) for Mga3.
</I>><i> > Trish told me that she would put together some text for Guala's
</I>><i> > images soon (within a day). About whether the installer software
</I>><i> > will support svg images and multiple languages... That is a very
</I>><i> > good idea, but I think it may have simply come too late. Maybe next
</I>><i> > time? That will certainly require a lot of coordination with the
</I>><i> > i18n team as well as packagers. Finally a question: who knows what
</I>><i> > needs to be done so that the final 10 PNGs will get packaged and
</I>><i> > ready to go for Beta 2?
