Hello,
Because of sheer incompetence and abuse conduct of one of the recently adopted board members I decided to put my activities as a management board member of OpenSER/Kamailio project on hold.
I will be able to resume my activities after the voluntary leave of Henning Westerholt.
For those who do not know who I am, I was involved with OpenSER from Day 0 of its inception.
Kind regards, Adrian
This is really sad.

Guys,
I don't have any insights in what's going on on the board, but isn't the board supposed to prevent that one single guy can make decisions which influence the overall project like that?
Aren't you, Adrian, as a board member, supposed to stand up and take your chance to speak out loud that something is going THAT wrong? And if you did, and your voice wasn't heard due to this high S/N ratio because of some discussions about some features or whatever, why didn't anybody else on the board complain?
I'm just a little bit suspicious about one person pointing fingers at somebody else on the board, when there are (supposed to be) a couple of other parties who should represent the project, who didn't really complain or didn't stand up by now to explain the whole situation that is going on on the board?
Bogdan complained about being overruled by the board in different kind of things (from a technical and from a management point of view), and well, that happens in a project being lead by a couple of parties. But what I really miss is the other side of the story, like why the decisions where made as they were made. And the fact, that another board member puts down his vote like that (demanding that another board member quits) is not a sign of democracy. So maybe something is really going wrong on the board?
Just my thoughts? Andreas

Andreas,
Just have a good look at this:
http://lists.kamailio.org/pipermail/devel/2008-June/014204.html it then moves here: http://lists.kamailio.org/pipermail/devel/2008-June/014372.html then here: http://lists.kamailio.org/pipermail/devel/2008-June/014122.html then here: http://lists.kamailio.org/pipermail/devel/2008-June/014456.html
I'd say both sides had their reasons, but one side never gave any explanation for why they were insisting on something that maybe could've been solve without much hassle. But both sides got too heated and this is the result of that -and I must say, a little selffish on both sides-
I'm really hoping both sides see their errors here, can work toghether again and do what we're all here to do, make the project move forward.
IMO, although it seems like Bodgan has founded reasons to be upset, in the end the local_route made its way into the release, even if it made it as an "experimental feature".
Have a good one all,
David.
P.S.: "Can't we all just get along?" hehe, just kidding
That thread is very illustrative.

David,
And that's exactly the point. That's why the board is there to decide on such issues, in my opinion.
But... Bogdan refused to comply with this decision (for whatever reason), and now Adrian accuses Henning to enforce things and to abuse his board position (or at least that's what one can read from the mailing lists). So there's something really wrong with the board, i guess.

In any case, both Bodgan and Daniel SHOULD understand that this project's issues are more important than their own personals issues. They should behave like the prefessionals they are and overcome their private issues when talking project's issues.

Hi David,
I do not have anything with any body - as stated in the original email, my main concern is the project itself and how it is managed - based on how things are going (board discussions), I see no future with the current way of managing the project.
not sure what poisoned back-stage rumours you heard, but I'm aware that truth is not convenient for all of us and dust in the eyes is a simply way to cover it.
Regards, Bogdan

Hi Andreas,

David,

I say this is the biggest problem - in a normal democratic country, the government reflects the will of all people from the country - it is elected by them. When the people are not identifying anymore with the government, they can simple elect a new one. But this is what is missing in kamilio. Right now there is a board that does not obey to the project (as community and developers) will.
But... Bogdan refused to comply with this decision (for whatever reason),
For simple reason that the decision where what I call "decisions just for the sake of taking a decision and not for solving the problem"
and now Adrian accuses Henning to enforce things and to abuse his board position (or at least that's what one can read from the mailing lists). So there's something really wrong with the board, i guess.
This is a right guess.
The board failed = to contain and solve any technical debates (like local_route) = to look after the project - the trademark problems (and the septemeber deadline) were known from March but nobody was so interested in doing anything = to see the project interest - there were more discusses about how to do use the project for the benefit of some businesses (like using the project as the playground for advertising companies, rather than doing work).
Bogdan
Hi David,
First of all leaving kamilio is not about local_route - more or less the decisions to stop some useful work based on some arguments with no technical values, the whole story with SVN (now is frozen, now it is not - decision taken by 3 people) where just the last drops to fill in the glass.
Based on the how the things were going in the last 10 month, I saw no future. I really do not want to wast 7 year work (on SER and openSER) just because other people like to do politics instead of technical work with the project. When I was wasting more effort with politics than with the development, it was clear that the current way of running the project is wrong.
And as a small note: local_route is not experimental in OpenSIPS - is it a first step in building more interesting feature. There were things fixed (there were quickly imported in kamilio :D), but what we have in 1.4.1 is the first version - work is still in progress for enhancing it.
Regards, Bogdan
