- Organisation
=> Review cotisation amount, why not have a button to incitate subscription ?
- Projet
=> Versionning (next = 5.0 ? Give a fun nickname like "The Naked Nerd") => LDR: Yes. 5.0 => Give some community developers admiral role for simple bugfix merge allows more reactivity and give L.DESTAILLEUR more time to focus on new features and roadmap => NO:
As i said hundred of time MERGING PROCESS DOES NOT NEED TIME. It is even the opposite. Letting merging on a core branch by several people increase problems and the time required to merge (merging must be validated 2 times and revert must be often do, frequently manually). I spend around 3 mn per day for merging PR so this point is ABSOLUTELY NOT A PROBLEM. To provide me more time, what i need is bug fixed to process issue. I fixed around 2 hundred of bugs at each version and this IS CONSUMING TIME.
