I did. I don't see any ad hominem attacks. I was very careful not to say anything nasty. Even assuming I am a hypocrite - philosophically speaking, I am sure we are all hypocrites to a certain extent, yes? - this doesn't give any of us permission to behave in flagrantly nasty ways over and over again and not be called on it. That's the fallacy in your argument. At this point, I am going to separate myself from this conversation and wait to see what action is taken, if any. Really, I think you are mis-using your debating skills, as you were clearly in the wrong, and what you said was indefensible, so you should have just apologized. I tend to get pulled into these things because a) I care about Gentoo and b) I don't like to see people get away with crap over and over again by using cheap debating tricks. But I will cut myself off from this thread now. -Daniel -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
