I can tell you what's *not* going to attract Linux users to the
community; trolling, petty negativity, paranoia, snitchy ad-hominem
attacks and in-fighting.
[de-lurk] Yes. The tone of this conversation is revolting.
Not sure I agree. As I said elsewhere earlier today, IMO, there are maybe a
couple individual posts by a couple individuals that *might*, with a
stretch, qualify as revolting or snitchy ad-hominem attacks. But that's
about it.
Or are you referring to the melee that took place on opensolaris-discuss
before indiana-discuss opened?

Might I
suggest that we try discussing some of these issues without assuming
that any individual or party is trying to sabotage or hijack the
proceedings? It might turn out to be true. People with bad agendas
inevitably reveal them, sooner than they'd like.
And, to the sensible, grown-up people in the discussion, remember:
don't feed the trolls. -Tim
