I think if we can establish a formal process for decision making within the advocacy group, a concensus can be reached. However the process of decision ratifies a concensus action, (by senior advocacy members, members of the core team, or what have you), I think it should be started with a show of hands from the masses.:) Jason Wells and I have been discussing engineering a survey page for the advocacy group that could be used as a formal voting process as well as for finding out where the group's interests are. (I plan to actually start writing the cgi for it after finals week is over.:) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-advocacy" in the body of the message
