In my life/professional experience i never see a decision that was
totally good or bad, i see decision that changed the situation in better
or in worst. I think this poll is in the first category, not only
because i'm one of people who think who follow it, but because we need
to change a situation.

We need to change the situation and we have to do structural changes,
that can be see as bad things if we want to maintain certain original
condition and as good if we want to find new prospectives. We can't
refuse to hide this problem, we have to chose our way and then work on
it: this poll, in my opinion, is the beginning of this process. I think
that in the next months we'll have to reestablish the project, and we'll
have to do if the result of this poll will be +1 or -1.

I hope all ambassador agree with me in this little analysis .

Thanks to all people who in the last month said their opinion, and
thanks to the "Project Geek" who said their opinion, to enlight me over
the pros and cons of this merge.

Regards

Francesco Ugolini
