I am disappointed at the paucity of discussion on this important topic. Considering how much time we spend on this topic in our highly scarce 60 minute weekly meetings, I would have thought there would be
more interest.
To perhaps engender discussion, I will call on Ivar to address my suggestion above that we pay someone to volunteer for the maintenance release coordinator role. Let’s get creative and think of ways to pay
the person beyond money. I suggested a few ideas above. Are you empowered to speak for Eclipse’s ability to kick in any of the non-money things I suggested?
Thanks,
Ed
