Hi, I'm joining this list since 2012 and don't remember anybody who ever was nearly as rude, let alone ruder than Aryeh Friedman. This person should consider to reread his own posts to the list, perhaps starting with his subject of this thread. "Why are so many FreeBSD haters on this list? (Troll bait)" Insulting "many" subscribers of this mailing list as "haters" is rude. His mails are full of similar insults about "evil" people and things, apart from this he insists to continue spreading FUD. Every now and then off-topic threads are nice to read, as long as they aren't the reason for dispeace. The moderation bit could be used to sort out emails with continued threads, that do not belong to this list and that in addition do cause dispeace. It doesn't require to ban a subscriber or subscribers from the list. A long discussion regarding legal questions, done by laymen, might belong to https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-chat . OTOH tinfoil hat theories including insults about bad intentions behind FLOSS licenses, are probably unwelcome on any FLOSS related mailing list. The OP of the threads in question does add insults and preposterous allegation to his opinions. At the moment nobody seems to be upset about other opinions, it's just that the tone of voice let those opinions become unreasonable. I can't speak for other, but I like one or the other license better than the GPL. What I dispute are the conclusions based upon infamous misrepresentations. https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2020-April/author.html#start Regards, Ralf
