Your attitude on the wiki is exactly why people like myself will
eventually stop coming back to post things. Why have a wiki at all. I'm
to the point where I'm going to remove all my posts, and host them
solely on my website and stop posting anything to the CentOS wiki,
because these arguments and issues seem to crop up more and more from
people. Or at least remove my name from all my pages and let them
dissolve there.
Some, and not all, make it difficult for folks that are trying to
contribute to CentOS. I remember Dag posting something similar on his
blog in reference to attitude of CentOS towards people trying to help.
This is the attitude driving people away that are trying to do whatever
they can to give back. It's a shame.
The Nagios guide has been on the wiki for several years now, and I've
had never anything but good things said about it, and thank you's from
folks for people starting out with Nagios. Now all of a sudden there's
a problem, and it shouldn't exist.

Max
