Maybe I suggest that for some time, we outright ban freeform discussion about process, and instead, we restrict them to threads started by a Boost developers and saying this: "I am maintainer of X, and had N commits and M trac changes in the last year. I most hate P1, P2 and P3. I would propose that we use T1, T2, and T3 to fix that". Then, everybody could join to suggest better way of fixing P1, P2 and P3 -- without making up other supposed problems.
Thoughts?
Not to sound like a sour grape, but this is precisely the attitude that makes the Boost project so unwelcoming. Sometimes I wonder why I personally even bother trying to contribute. That said probably my not being here at all wouldn't even be missed if we just count the commits and ignore the bug reports, patches, helping out the people with issues, people who submit reviews, people who provide feedback, those that try to get Boost adopted in more projects and situations, etc. Maybe I just come from a generation which largely don't hold back what we think or that I am just really vocal about issues. That said then, I'm done with this. Have a good one everyone. -- Dean Michael Berris about.me/deanberris
