Jimbo after
But to keep it uncontroversial and boring and to
avoid it being used
as a tool of cabal-ism, it does matter if a person
has already caused
controversy (whether I think they were right or
wrong on the content
merits, of course!).
You might have made a run for Governor with those
skills, Jim. :)
But its more than simply cabal-ism - its about the
process by which we allow for some change to take
place--change can be good. Does Erik's unilateral
act in this case require that he be "demoted" from his
position as developer? Certainly not. Does it
require Erik to perhaps admit he was wrong in taking
unilateral action, regardless of the situational
ethics of his case? Maybe. I see that everything
worked out fine--which means (after the fact) that
there was a third outcome (also positive) that I did
not consider in my lookahead. All of which brings me
joy.
