RFC thoughts

I'm not a huge fan of this process. I know it has precedent over at Wikipedia, but I'm not even certain of it being effective there. There hasn't been an RFC here that has been "carried" (received even the minimum number of endorsements). It seems like our time/resources would be better spent if the parties in dispute just quickly hashed out whatever problems they had rather than dragging the issue into "court".

I appreciate that Peter took the time to respond to this, but I expect that it'll go the way of Shane's RFC (the only other RFC I can recall since I've been here), and be deleted this weekend. --Steelviper 08:32, 8 June 2006 (CDT)

I did make an honest attempt to resolve our differences privately, and I would be happy to share the log of that conversation with you. --Peter Farago 10:47, 8 June 2006 (CDT)

I was not calling you out, or even calling Shane out. It was more of an opinion regarding my distaste for the RFC as a mechanism for "dispute resolution". Though the process is somewhat young here, it's 0/2 (as far as I know). --Steelviper 11:18, 8 June 2006 (CDT)

This is my first experience with it and the process seems cumbersome and awkward for the relatively small group of active participants we have here. Just my opinion, I could be wrong. --gougef 12:19, 8 June 2006 (CDT)
