This is the single thing that bugs me the most. Pid0: you have some good arguments, the last one--as Alain put it--particularly hit the nail on the head. Although I do not agree with some of the arguments in general, much of that doubt is being convinced by the problem of the last paragraph. As I already indicated in my last mail, I believe it could be a fitting solution to elect a large enough PMC, preferrably without a chair.The question arises though, how to nominate, elect, and how often to re-elect. Also I wonder if the PMC is supposed to have complete power over the project. This reminds me of the parliamentary chaos from state-politics we see so often. This needs more input, also from other core members (e.g. Stephen, Bill, Frank etc.). -- Niklas At the time of writing, no warrants have ever been served to me, Niklas Lemcke, nor am I under any personal legal compulsion concerning the CipherShed project. I do not know of any searches or seizures of my assets.
