Hi there,
(from somebody who attend FOSDEM)
Yeaaaah, I agree with you in general, but let me clarify some things:
1.) It's an easy way "from outside" to put up your finger and point it
so somebody ...
2.) Who is the Sheriff in that case?
Just to let you know or many readers know, it was a "Policy" from my
point of view as an event-owner for Linuxtag (Germany) and to be honest;
on Linuxtag it works because I personally kicked off every person with
his private Laptop at the booth; also the FPL and the First FPL :-) You
can ask them (if you don't believe).
So you think a policy only works if there is somebody (you?) to enforce
it? I still believe that our ambassadors are smart enough to understand
and follow such a policy even if there is no "sheriff".
Also to be honest; FOSDEM is as it said the name Free and Open
Source
Developer European Meeting
There is and should be time to meet, time to hack and also time to
discuss. Who never been there, please come once, see it and go ahead
raise up your finger complaining ...
Please not earlier; thanks :-)
I have been there last year, so am I qualified to speak up?
All I wanted to say: The time at an event is to short. Use it wisely.
Package updates are a pretty boring task. Better use your time to attend
a talk, a hackfest, to talk to people that you only meet rarely or to
help at the Fedora booth. And if you help out at the booth, be there for
visitors and not for your laptops.
BTW.: I sit close to that people who reviewed packages: In the
HACKROOM
(This was not done at the booth!
As I wrote in my mail there were complaints about Fedora people just
sitting and hacking at their booth. Please read the #fedora-de log of
today if you don't believe me.
Hope to see you all soon again in person
Regards
Gerold

P.S.: Everybody, please be so kind as to honor
