I do not believe that this is only like that.
First, the openness and goal should be clear, then this is like love 
this is not one partner deciding but both agreeing and the base for 
that is communication. This is why I cross-posted these emails because 
the communication was quite lacking. People in squeak were frustrated 
by the absence of communication on Tweak.

yes that too.

I think that documentation in the text above should be converted into 
communication.

oh yes.
