I'm not thinking less of Asterisk because of the this list.  I'm merely
suggesting that we would be no worse, and in my opinion we would be much
better, if we could just check the attitudes at the door.  For the project
to grow, people need to feel welcome to contribute.  I shouldn't be nervous
to ask questions to the -dev list.  That seems counter intuitive.

I think that the "code of conduct" would be a great thing for the list.
Part of the code should describe policy regarding treatment of other
developers and would-be developers.

I don't think anybody thought worse of VMS or DEC because of Carl's lack
of manners. I didn't.

No. And I think this "mis-subjected" thread should die now.
