You are not offending me - please don't make this personal. As a site moderator it is my duty to try to ensure that the forums stay easy to use for all users. Your use of two names can be a source of confusion. It' sreally that simple. Nothing to do with personailities or anything else so don't be offended.

It is my hope that we can clear up this confusion and get back on track ASAP.

DJ,

Could you please elaborate on your understanding?


Tim (tom) and James

If you let D.J. take the lead, he will do just that. As you both have equal status then you must assert your right to have an equal role in the direction of how things are going. I can't say I fully understand the reasoning for the proposed format, but it seems to me that at least it is well thought out and defined. I suggest that you two gentlemen do your best to ensure it happens. As you guys have the 'keys' to the system, then it fairly falls in your lap to do it. Otherwise you should hand them over to someone else who is prepared to do it. I'm afraid that deferring to D.J. just 'cus he shouts louder is not an adequate response. It's a tough call.

Skalpa made the appointments 'as he left'. Don't make the mistake of thinking that we live in a democracy ... yet.

Raising the issue of end-users, and useability, is a good idea. The users' perspective is often overlooked in software development.


Hence my proposal for the project council posted HERE. One of the things that the independent 'chairman' can do is ensure the needs of the end user are supported by the development team.

end-user-rep

I believe you are posting as bluestocking as well. Please don't do that. It is confusing for other site users and is bad online etiquette.

We have seen your arguments for signing off in different forms when you want to wear different hats. Although that is also confusing, it is more preferable than using two or more identities.

Consider this a polite request.

Kind Regards
Ashley

XOOPS Project Council - Current situation

It seems to me that the following is the situation:

1/ Project Council is currently

phppp
JMorris
tom

This is as defined by phppp. phppp has elected himself as council leader and has also defined that the team leader of the core development team is automatically a member of the XOOPS Council.

2/ Project Council is not functioning correctly because phppp is making decisions on his own without reference to the other council members.

3/ I have been made aware that JMorris was actually invited by Skalpa to be the project leader for XOOPS with phppp as core development leader.

I know that phppp is very busy with the core dev team. I should like to propose that with immediate effect

a - JMorris is given the role as XOOPS Project Manager and chairman of XOOPS Council
b - phppp retains role as core development team leader
c - JMorris invites all XOOPS team leaders to inaugral meeting of XOOPS Council to define constitution of the the council, (i.e. membership, tenure, leadership, role and objectives.) This meeting to take place within the next 2 weeks.

This will leave phppp with the important task of concentrating on getting the XOOPS code kicked into shape, an enormous task in its own right, and leave getting the shape of the XOOPS organisation to JMorris, another onerous task.
