I am pleased to announce that we are recruiting for a Developer.
Disappointed that a community view expressed here has been brushed
aside.
The Board members who participated in the discussion on this list
did not convince me, at least, that the ideas from January 2010, that I
heard debated, had really been subjected to recent scrutiny. Quite the
opposite.
The points raised recently weren't new. Mike and I have been debating
whether to hire one jack-of-all-trades employee or several specialist
contractors for the past 2 years (mostly on the uk wiki).
It may surprise you to hear that Mike was the one arguing for contractors,
so this certainly isn't a matter of refusing to budge from your first
decision.
