I am deeply saddened by the events referred to as they seem symptomatic of the open source community as a whole at the moment, the entire sense of community has been lost.
When I first became involved with Linux some 10 years ago it was not unusual to be exchanging pleasantries, information, help, assistance, whatever at all hours of the night and day with people all over the world. Now the whole thing seems to have become infested by twats with large egos and severe personality disorders, worryingly perhaps this just reflects the current shambolic nature of society as a whole. It is also not the first time that this project has demonstrated such inner problems, it took an iron hand from Gerard to sort out last time. PEOPLE! For the sake of the Project, the community, and the human race: GET YOUR FREAKING ACT TOGETHER!!!
