This GR resolution proposal is identical to that > proposed by Matthew Vernon in March: > https://lists.debian.org/debian-vote/2014/03/msg00000.html Hi Ian, the seconders, and everybody, I think that this GR does nothing but demotivating those doing the work. It may give a warm feeling to those who oppose the curent direction taken for Jessie, because they can satisfy themselves that they tried everything they could, but what Debian gains with this ? Nobody prepared a workable alternative, and opposing a change does not go automatically with the capacity of building the alternative. In the end, I think that this GR is just a show. I do not see it winning, nor even approaching majority. And I think that GRs should not be proposed if they have no serious chances to win, given that each GR costs us time, energy, division and bitternes (and I know what I am talking about). Therefore, I propose the following amendement. Please do not take it personnaly. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Debian project asks its members to be more considerate when proposing General Resolutions, and in particular to take care that the proposed GR has actual chances to be accepted, considering that GRs is a disruptive process regardless the outcome of the vote. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Enhancements of the wording are welcome.
