No, I want to end this war now. NO need to create another.
What I say, is that we don't need leaders.
We've had them , it's not going to work, not for an opensource project. I mean, a leader is efficient when people obey him/her. But when it is an opensource/ not commerical project, when a member has no obligations over what the leader says, what can a leader do? tell me! I bet you can't, because there are none options.
I too want this to end, I think what I'm saying is probably getting mixed up here or misunderstood.
I'm not running after any title, I'm not trying to overthrow anyone, I'm not even complaining about who's running the project.
I'm complaining because I was asked to do various tasks, then ignored, brushed off, and cast into the darkness, I was working rather happily with my tasks.
But then I log in and find I'd been totally removed without any notification, not even a pm to say, 'Tom we no longer require your services any longer', and I feel this was because I questioned certain things, and not in a negative way either.
Yes there are other options, seek a compromise, there may not be any obligations, but there certainly is willingness.
I'm not saying we need leaders either, I'm simply questioning how I was ignored and brushed off for no apparent reason, other than I raised questions.

Honestly, would you rather work yourself or have a person above you commanding, and making you work for nothing? If you choose to help out in Xoops.org it is your choice, not that of the leaders. They simply are physically and financially independant from you, they have NO CONTROL over you. THEY ARE NOT YOU BOSS, so if they ahve no function over other people, what is the point of they being leaders? I'm sure it's better have someone to help in organization, but not to lead or to boss around. Remember, XOOPS is not like military.
We better off not have a leader than have one. But we need and organizer!
The communication team was set up with two leaders, not commanders, the leaders make requests, those willing step-forward and work commences, we were the first team since the re-birth to make progress with a physical outcome.
I'm not saying it's the choice of the leaders, when did I say that, please read my comments in the news article and you will see what has upset me.
I simply don't agree with how I was ignored, brushed off then cast aside, I was asked to do a job, then not allowed to do it.
There are a few other issues of course, but this is my real issue here, as I've gone over and over.
