There's definitely too much noise about at the moment. Things need to be more organised and formalised. Why shouldn't this be treated like a normal business with set 'open hours' that are known by everyone where board members are available to deal with enquiries.
With the team living in different time zones, and a shitstorm recently averted, there seems to be a slightly scattered approach to public relations which is understandable but it is very important that there is continuity and openness (where possible).
I remember one of the board members saying someone was coming in to do the PR so I'll look forward to this happening.
I'm sure there are things happening behind the scenes to bring a more structured approach. Regular IRC meetings would help.
Hi Glen, how about discuss the issues in IRC meeting tonite around 6:45 to 7:00 EST North America time zone with the committee and Devs + those who think they may or could contribute. Short and precise down to point on organize operation, public relation and tasks? The folks in the committee board seems operating more than excel in every task to me except lack of directional focus and some minor as you spot it.
