There are way too many things happening "in private" around here and the only way to solve that problem is to open the doors.

Would you please offer examples of decisions that you feel that way about?

We need not look any farther than this episode to see an example of how things could have been handled better. I don't think that the course of action that was ultimately adopted was unreasonable, but did we have to wait from the 8 October, when I filed ports/151312, until your forwarded message of 11 March:

http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-ports/2011-March/066478.html

to learn what was actually broken by the change, so that we could begin to fix it? Shortly after you sent your message to the lists, other people began to help. This could have happened a lot sooner, and we could have avoided some of this discreditable bickering.
