No, it has nothing to do with it. There is no justification for removing me from the the alioth kernel team, and even less in doing so silently. This is what started all this, over a year ago, the d-i team has removed me from the the d-i alioth team, while my mother was dying, without even trying to speak with me, later they did some stuff with the ftp-masters to stop me from uploading .udebs, and then i got banned from the lists, and then they restarted the expulsion provess. Each time they did one more level of agression while i was trying to be constructively contributing despite their agression. > > This is now a call to all DDs, to come forward, with a GR if possible, > > and put a stop to this, and revert the DAMs decision, which was a > > *STUPID* decision, removing my ability to do technical contributions to > > debian, while not solving the perceived problem of my mailing list > > contributions, which was only a consequence of the repeated agression on > > my technical capability to contribute to debian. > > You know, a contribution is generally regarded as something that adds > value.

Exact, which is why i ask you to oppose the current way of dealing with me, which hurts my positive contibutions, and forcing me to only do negatively perceived ones. I ask thus the debian project, to revoke the DAMs supsension, to reinstate my d-i and kernel svn commit rights, and to remove the special case ban on my uploads, and let me be a normal DD. Then you can judge me, and see if i still have something to complain about or not. > There was 2 mediation attempts between you and the debian-installer There where no mediations. The first took full one-sided position with the d-i folk, and put frans as judge of my good behaviour, while saying nothing about his behaviour. I objected to this, but in the end played the game, fixing over 30 bugs under the first mediation, and it only resulted in frans bashing me in bug reports, telling me to FUCK OFF, and finally asking the ftp-master to remove my .udeb upload right, *WHILE MY RIGHT TO UPLOAD .UDEBS WAS DEFINED IN THE FIRST MEDIATION* The second mediation, well, i challenge you to find something to reproach me during its period which would justify the 2 month ban, because half the DDs if not more have done much worse than i have during *THAT TIME*. > team. Both came to similar conclusions. When this didn't satisfy, the > DAMs finally decided that you'd be temporarily suspended. Do you Nope. When Frans or someone else saw my DPL candidacy, they decided to play mafioso politicks and ask for my expulsion. The DAMS have not followed their own procedure, have manipulated the requests, so the reality of what happened did not show up, used mails from over a year ago to justify the expulsion, and have not, despite numerous requests from me and others, provided fully signed and dated copies of the support mails. > *really* think that all your repeated complaints will help your case? Well, what else will help me. As was the case a year ago, i was happily trying to fix a bug, and *DISCOVERED* i had been removed. The same happened for the expulsion, i made effort to go to FOSDEM, bring hardware for the debian booth, proposed a talk, so we could discuss the kernel future also with the d-i team, instead of the deaf-dialog that was happening, and they chose to expulse me. James Troup even spoke with me, fully knowing they would try to expulse me, and said nothing about it. The DDs have expressed a strong opposition to the expulsion of over 70:7, and the DAMs plainly ignored this. > Really?

Right, what would that gain ? In a year, i would again be the subject of the harrasment and hurt from the d-i team or who know else, and at the minor opposition, they will again come up and say : see, he is doing it again. Also, each and everyone of the repeated complaints you critic was preceded and caused by another agression against me ? Don't you think it would be much more human and fruitful to stop those agression, and let me work on what i like doing, and have earned a right to do with my over 8 year of very active contribution ? > And when you do, please don't rehash this over and over again. That way > you'll only end up having people more pissed. So what ? What have i to lose ? The fact that we are having this discussion only proves how stupid the DAMs decision was, and it is not a stupid decision on their part, then something even more hideous is going on. > [snip] > > Regards: David How hypocrit, Saddened, Sven Luther -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
