Please don't preach to me, thank you.You should have learned this by now. Perception and warm fuzzies is an extremely important part of a large open source project that relies heavily on a large number of volunteers. Messing with that is playing with fire. I believe we can get work done on php-dev, especially if people can hold back on replying to trolls.
As Andi said, it's very nice to be the nice guy, and volunteer to sort the noise from the real content, when others are the ones who have to do the work. Volunteering others is always easy.
I did not say nuke php-dev. I said we need php5-dev, and we need it quiet and productive right now. But as you realized by now, your posts did a good job at alienating the very same users that you were supposedly helping. It wasn't even an issue until you made it one.
