we're all individuals, figuring how to move forwards. that has always been the case in this project.
maybe that is the problem

@zimbatm:numtide.comJonas Chevaliermaybe. there is clearly a mismatch of expectations.09:04:05
@withoutwithin:matrix.org@withoutwithin:matrix.orgfor what it's worth, i reached out to the foundation board as a last resort09:05:37
@arianvp:matrix.orgArianThere is no leadership crisis as we never really formally defined leadership of our community. We have a crisis of community in my opinion. It's community members who organise nixcon. And its community members that twice in a row chose Anduril eventhough it was clearly a bad idea to have them sponsor the conference a second time. We need to find way how we as a community solve that. I dont see why people keep putting some appeal to authority on the board here. Whilst it's clearly not set up to provide such authority. We could set it up like that. But it would require something very diffetent09:06:23
@arianvp:matrix.orgArianI'd require at least one full time paid employee09:06:34
@zimbatm:numtide.comJonas Chevalierwe already increased the bandwidth of the foundation, at personal costs on our personal lives and businesses, to move out of the crisis.09:06:44
@nat-418:nat-418.xyznat-418 something like a german e.V. registered voluntary association with a presidium, members, etc. seems reasonable 09:07:02
@arianvp:matrix.orgArianBut given we don't really have the level of funds to even sustain that I don't really see how that is currently possible. Unless we double down on getting more corporate sponsors and professionalize the foundation to have a more formal authoritative role in the project09:08:26
@zimbatm:numtide.comJonas Chevalierit's the same thing with the moderation team where people start making demands, as if they were mere employees. these are also community members are are talking about.09:08:37
