Wow, I am really surprised by this turn of events. It appears to me, from reading the LWN link as well as the links within the LWN article, that devuan.kn actually has a solid point. I cannot speak for the other stuff that he(she?) mentions but this GCC/hairball statement appears at the very least highly plausible, and certainly not reason for expulsion. This isn't the first time we have scared away new/potential community members because they didn't subscribe to the "One Correct Truth", or even simple miscommunication/language barriers, or where new members were picked for "excommunication" both off-list as well as on-list. At that time I dropped my list involvement significantly, moving to more of a lurker instead of being a participator. Whilst I really believe in the goals and technical directions behind Devuan, I am increasingly uncomfortable with the evolution of the social environment. Personally, I am a great believer in live and let live. It is starting to feel like the Manor Farm around here....
