I definitely don't agree with this definitely. A good thing about
opensource projects is that there aren't committees and thick rule books
that move and act at the speed of a dinosaur. When it begins to look that
way, you know you're in the wrong direction.
It doesn't mean that we shouldn't have rules, but I'll never support rules
such as 'dont debate/change the rules while [ANYTHING]'. If the rules are
broken, or there was lacking vision when we authored them, it should be
fixed on the spot.
