Hey, Shane, and thanks for the nice reply.
You know, sometimes we take a kind of calibrated approach to actually showing how a thing feels. Others need to know, when and often _where_ matters may be out of balance, from another point of view. That’s then an opportunity for everyone.
I do appreciate more than may be easily imagined about the difficulties with a fresh team on a long-developed project. The same with the things that will ‘just happen’ with any team’s work. Again, it’s a balance to have dependable enough procedures to catch the most egregious upsets without stifling forward work or boring everyone.
I often think rather philosophically about the EE effort, its unique combination of approaches which give a lot to all those who use it, in the midst of an extremely complicated network of internal desires, other open source efforts, partner developers, etc..
It’s a good challenge, and your nature of response here, Shane, gives me a nice feeling about how you are building to handle it.
A nice week-end to all of you on the team. You’ve earned it.
Oh, almost forgot. Your bandana has been reminding me of something, and it turns out it was a great film, which really will make you smile besides its gentle touch with realities. This is Gung Ho, http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0091159/. Probably you can find it at the video store, or any of the online places. Hope you can enjoy. Subject there is cars also 😉
Best,
Clive
