[$] A truce in the Manjaro governance struggle

Members of the Manjaro Linux distribution's community have publisheda "Manjaro2.0Manifesto"that contains a list of complaints and a demand to restructure the project to providea clear separation between the community and Manjaro as a company. The manifestoasserts that the project's leadership is not acting in the best interests of thecommunity, which has caused developers to leave and innovation to stagnate. Italso demands a handover of the Manjaro trademark and other assets to ato-be-formed nonprofit association. The responses on the Manjaro forum showed widespread supportfor the manifesto; Philip Muller, project lead and CEO of the Manjarocompany, largely stayed out of the discussion. However, he surfacedon March19 to say he was "open to serious discussions", but onlyafter a nonprofit had actually been set up.
