The phrase "Gang of Fourteen", which doesn't bug me in the least, applied to people doing something which an overwhelming majority of Buffistas voted for: setting up a voting system. And doing it in public. And doing it slowly. And doing it in great and very careful detail. And listening to each other.
Err, as the coiner, no it didn't. It applied to the fact that Kafka, even pre-vote vote, was mainly frequented by a smallish number of people, and specifically, that saying "Hey! Consensus!" among that small number, with regards to the way we were thinking about doing something, was just as false a consensus as the supposedly false consensus that lead up to this whole mess.
And is someone making new natter?
Plei, I started but just got slammed at work. Can you please pick it up?
V. It's not letting me... don't know why, exactly.
You have the thing open? Could it be two people trying to create a thread at once?

I apologise.
I have got two different things mixed up, it seems.
Anyway.
saying "Hey! Consensus!" among that small number, with regards to the way we were thinking about doing something, was just as false a consensus
but what we consensed on doing was
asking everyone what they thought.
How could that possibly be considered the same kind of, let's say, "fake consensus" as the other kind?
Nope. Won't work for me either. It submits, but doesn't show up in the list.
Thread-build needed? What's up?
I think someone needs to talk to ita.
