I guess it would help - maybe not being more gentle, but being
more direct and trying to avoid fallacies, comparisons, and
emotional means of argumentation.

I think you can't conclude anything about Thorsten and Gregor
from my statement.

As far as I'm concerned - I try not to be biased by personal emotions.
I have the feeling that you see yourself in a corner, being
misunderstood and attacked by other members of the community, and
this might have lead to the problematic discussion style I mentioned
above.

We can't erase the past or neglect any emotions and experiences,
so we should be especially careful about our style of writing.

As I understand it, the discussion started to become emotionally
problematic when you accused Thorsten of not wanting to tell
his reasons for proposing Bob, thus violating the concepts
of openness and transparency. Maybe you didn't intend to accuse him,
but I understood the mail like this.

It's absolutely fine to question a policy or guideline, but it
would have been more tactful not to do this in a thread which
involves particular people which could feel accused (Thorsten
and Bob). I agree with Gregor's reply [1].
