This is a tough thing to be in the middle of, but lets look at the facts. I moderated a forum for years, and it had no clearly defined goal like this community, so it was nothing but people poking sticks at each other and/or local government. 1 . Randi basically called Johannes a "whiny little prick". Sorry I couldnt see the attachments he provided but based on her responses, I dont think I'm far off. 2 . Johannes says that she should stop because we have a code of conduct that prohibits that. Whoever is a majority or minority or whatever doesnt matter. This is about the good of our operating system that we know and love. If people want to fight, insult, date each other, or discuss the latest episode of Friends, do it on the appropriate forum or through traditional email. I'm a nobody, I contributed to pstree ten years ago when AIX5L came out. All I am saying is dont feed the troll, and most of all, dont let the immature actions of one individual sabotage valuable work to an important cause. There are a lot of personality types involved here, and just because you dont like them as a friend isnt what this is all about. If you dont like them, dont talk to them, simple as that. Personal attacks have no place here. And yes, Randi, those are personal attacks, no matter how much you try to intellectualize them.
