Don't put yourself down - the fact is you made it through the
foundation membership process.. You've shown the guys that manage that
process that your a good GNOMie. The power users matter for sure, but
some of their arguments against bazaar have been "i dont like python"
and "i cant be arsed to learn a new tool"... Any and all foundation
members are entitled to a say. Actually, shouldn't all SVN account
holders be entitled to a say too...
