</span>One simple question:<br>
If LEDE team members are the ones who were suffering from some<br>
non-democratic decisions, why didn't they bring it to public<br>
discussion for community? At least on devel maillist?<br>
<br>
If it was clear problem in remaining OpenWrt team then LEDE would win<br>
the community right away or maybe problematic people would just go<br>
away. Either way it would be more fair and open. And this is one of my<br>
biggest concerns - LEDE team is promoting openness but didn't do their<br>
moves openly (looking at maillists it seems they were hiding it for<br>
month at least). Hate double standards.<br>
