We've had two threads on Django-dev in a week, started by the same OP, which have quickly degraded into *very* ugly territory. As Jacob has commented on the other threads, we're taking it on faith that the OP has good intentions but has phrased himself badly, but he, and others, have been warned about keeping a civil tongue. Given that a discussion of "what defines a perfectionist" is in no way on-topic for django-users, and has all sorts of potential to end up in bad places, I have no problem asking people to step away from this particular topic.
