(If Canonical does not need it, we're not interested.) This is almost never seen in other Canonical projects like bazaar and launchpad.<br> I personally felt quite a cold reception when I submitted an attempt to make the tutorial more approachable. This has made me hesitate to make other contributions. The present discussion about storm <-> schema integration also hints at a keep-out attitude by the Canonical team. Perhaps Canonical management needs to give the team more time budget to consider outside uses of storm as well as internal use?<br> --<br>Vernon Cole<br><br>
