Difference: RockboxSteeringBoard (r9 vs. r8)

the Rockbox Steering Board

Purpose

The Rockbox Steering Board is a last resort in case discussions among developers get stuck and agreement can't be reached. We have never gotten ourselves into such a situation yet, and we'll be quite happy if the steering board is never needed.

How it works

If a situation occurs where developers get stuck on an issue and fail to reach agreement, anyone can mail rsb@rockboxBLAH_BLAH.org and ask for intervention. Mail sent to the RSB is confidential and will not be made public.
