Brian,

You failed to, in an open source type discussion, address my questions in line repeatedly. Go to Gnome or Kernel Development or Fedora, or Redhat listservers and questions are posed and answered.

Our listservers are made for such open discussion. Our charter as a LUG demands it.

Our structure should be documented and discussed when someone brings forth such questions IN PRINT. People who cannot attend a meeting (like me) due to schedule or other commitments, have questions. If any of my questions and statements are wrong; the listserver and email format provides for COMMUNITY DISCOURSE.

Is this a secret society? You can't point me to a place that addresses who does what, how officers are elected, and steering committee members assigned, or projects accepted. AND if one HAS to come to a once a month meeting in order to interact with that process, again, we are failing our mission with Open Source LUG for this community.

This is the last thing I will say on this subject. Lisa, You don't know what you are talking about. You are throwing wild accusations around that have no basis in fact.

PLUG is a meritocracy, plain and simple. Hans does not and never has appointed anyone to the steering committee.

Are the steering committee posted on the website, no, but it's hardly a secret who they are when the person MCing the meeting introduces the steering entire committee most every month.

What you are doing is some really terrible arm chair quarterbacking, that is amounting to wondering why people aren't tackling each other while watching a basketball game. The only reason I ever replied to any of your posts is so that I didn't leave your opinion hanging out there where people might think that what you are saying is based on facts... it's not. (It seems to be based on some beef with Hans, if anything)

Please come and join us for a few meetings and find out how things really work. If you want to participate in decisions about PLUG, we have an open meeting every month before the PLUG meeting, starting at 6pm. We also have a mailing list devoted to planning plug events that we coordinate actions between meetings. We often times have meetings before and/or after Stammtiche, but they are on an as needed basis and are almost always announced widely when we have them.
