Yes, would be nice if some of you reading this could offer to become
“supporters”.

Even better if we can finalize before Guix Days so:

  discussion period ending on Jan. 14th
  deliberation period ending on Jan. 28th

How does that sound?

Everyone: this may sound like boring administrative stuff, but in fact,
it’s pretty crucial for the well-being of the project (meaning: the
people!) going forward.  It’s a fairly simple process that ensures
important decisions are properly discussed and decided on, and that
everyone gets a chance to weigh in.

Without such a process, it’s either authoritarianism or stagnation.

Please take a look, comment, offer your name as a “supporter”, and then
make your voice heard during the deliberation period!
