At the moment, not explaining any events which may have occured seems to be hurting the project. This does little to convey a sense of stability or trust, and the secrecy is causing many to reconsider their participation in the project. At the very least, it is a matter of respect to the project community. Core has nothing to hide, and the project belongs to all involved. If the move to remove Dillon's commit privileges truly is beneficial to the project, then why is an explaination of this so difficult to share? > Robert N M Watson FreeBSD Core Team, TrustedBSD Projects > robert@fledge.watson.org Network Associates Laboratories -- Benjamin Krueger To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
