I'd have to agree with that; there are important points about direction that certainly haven't been communicated adequately. > The new-bus people talk from the view of the entire architecture, but > the focus of the PAO people is how to face the reality *NOW*. If that was all they were doing, that'd be ideal. The real problems arising at the moment however stem from the PAO team laying plans for long-term development without considering the directions that other groups are taking. > The two parties should respect differences in their positions. > I for one feel that both efforts are very important for laptop users. I think this is a sentiment that we all share; I'm not entirely sure how to go about improving the situation so that the PAO folks can concentrate on finding and fixing specific issues while remaining inside the ongoing development framework. We had hoped that making Tatsumi a committer would provide a means for the groups to come together, but this hasn't happened. -- \\ Sometimes you're ahead, \\ Mike Smith \\ sometimes you're behind. \\ mike@smith.net.au \\ The race is long, and in the \\ msmith@freebsd.org \\ end it's only with yourself. \\ msmith@cdrom.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
