<div dir="ltr">Fine. I have been using Lubutnu and reading these mailings since before the first rrelease. It's been a long time since I posted anything at all, let alone of any value (That was to help with the old original Synaptics touchpad problems). But I regularly read through the posts. If someone decides I can't anymore, so be it. <div>

Scratch one user from your lists and please unsubscribe me from anything related if this is the way things are going to be run and I'll just go to Mint.</div>

Ali cited the clear organizing principle which defines and
stresses active membership. He also notes precedent for
updating the membership list. I don't see that anyone has
identified a real problem here.</font><br>

I have sent an email on 27th of Jan, 2013 (13 days
ago) for each member of:<br>

The email had this subject: "Team Members Activity"
.<br>
Then, I have re-sent another email yesterday as a
last reminder.<br>
<br>
Long story short, I have <i>removed </i>the<u>
'inactive members' who did NOT reply my email for
13 days.</u>

<div><b>As always, whenever you feel ready to
contribute, please feel free to re-join and you
are more than welcome</b>.</div>
<div>All your contributions were and still very much
appreciated. I'd like to thank you personally for
all what you have done and I'm sure you understand
the sub-teams must remain active and
communications between the members of each team is
very important.</div>

<div>I personally haven't been affected by any of this but
it seems odd to me anyone would try to make it more
difficult to join in. Just because someone isn't active
now doesn't mean they won't be able to contribute at a
later date. I'm more than happy for you guys to do as
you please but I'm a bit perplexed by purposefully
removing those who sign up to something of their own
accord.</div>
