Statement of the BlackBox Framework Chair

Post by Josef Templ »

Dear center members,

As the new chair I would like to thank you for your trust in my person
and I would also like to thank Doug for his efforts during his term.
A lot has been achieved so far:
We have the center (thanks to Rene),
we have an administrator (thanks to Ivan),
we have a forum,
we have a host,
we have a repository,
we have an issue tracker,
we have a development process,
we have an automated build engine,
we have already done some changes,
we have a plan for the next steps (thanks to Helmut).

An updated Wiki chair page can be found under
http://wiki.blackboxframework.org/index.php?title=Chair
As you see there, my preferences are to continue working on the 1.7 release.
I am convinced that keeping up with the backlog of changes in the CPC edition
is crucial in order to avoid a split of the BlackBox world into slightly incompatible versions.

Since 1.7 is a lot of work and a lot of votings, I propose to really focus on this and
to make organizational changes only if necessary for reaching this goal.
The organization/process is a tool not a goal. It should help us reaching our
goal (Release 1.7) effectively.

Best regards and best wishes for a happy and successful new year.

- Josef
