less talk more action

[Ross Willman]

I challenge anyone who has a problem with the current situation to
clearly define what non-bureaucratic action they would take for
ubuntu-au under a new structure, then answer why they aren't doing
that now. I honestly don't understand how the current setup has
stopped anyone from promoting Ubuntu in Australia.

The ubuntu-au community is not lacking structure - it's lacking
motivated people. Get out there - do stuff to promote Ubuntu in
Australia. If you do enough, you'll become known within the Ubuntu-au
community, and the leadership or power (or whatever you want to call
it) that you worry about will be shared with you.

Anyone that is holding back promoting Ubuntu because they aren't happy
with the leadership of Ubuntu-au, isn't worthy of any leadership
themselves. I think that a push for restructure would be looked upon a
lot more fondly if it came from someone who is a driving force in the
community. Has anyone making noise about this actually been in the
community for more than a year?
