Pawel continues to have my full support and remains the appropriate person
to be leading the project.  Both Bozo and Markus are now part of the core
team and hence will have influence over the projects direction in the
future.

My general observation of the broader mailing list community is that
people are happy with Pawel's work/management.  If they're not I invite
them to email me to that effect.

Pawel took on the "management" role at the request of me and with Pavel
J's agreement.  Pavel J and I retain the right to veto decisions as the
original authors but have not had cause to do so.  I am happy with Pawel's
work as I believe is Pavel J.  I think you will find this approach
consistant with other open source projects.

It's a shame Marcin that you don't like the way things are being handled
within the gnokii project.  At the end of the day you can of course fork
mygnokii off (like samba/samba tng) and I invite you to do so if you don't
like it here.

Let's avoid another flame war - if you don't like it here please fork and
set up your own mailing list etc.  Clearly gnokii/mygnokii users are free
to choose whichever project they like as well.

The best result would be of course for you to stay as you've made valuable
contributions but if you feel you are unable to, so be it.

Regards,
Hugh
