Currently we are at one commit a month, any = reason to quadruple it instead of requesting a slight raise, such as two = commits a month?=20 My concern is that not all developers who do contribute something each = month can give Gentoo the commitment you request for every month. Should = we lose their contributions as they are a smaller quantity because some = people think that if you cant do more all the time then it's just not = good enough?=20 It seems that the goal should be to find positive ways to encourage more = developers to become active, not start retiring those that cant give = Gentoo as much time that others can.
