[seedig] Pettition according to ToR, Art 7.

Tue Dec 17 11:01:02 CET 2019

Dear colleagues,
I support this petition.
And I express my absolute support and huge respect to Sorina, Sonia,
Lianna, Olga, all colleagues who develop the community. We know that is a
colossal work, time, commitment. That is the reason - community is big now,
but constructive work is on the shoulders of several (the best) people.

My opinion is the same as the opinion of Roberto - even unpleasant
situation is a normal stage in the growth of strong healthy, open and
friendly community in which common interests replace private motives.

And.
It is really good there is the moment of truth.
Go ahead people who have just common interests, working goals and right
ethic, with a desire not to destroy but to improve SEEDIG.

Sincerely,
Natalia Filina
