On the other hand I also have to say that Dag's responses were equivalently thoughtless in regard to actually building up the community, instead of just inciting KS to dig deeper into his position. On the other other hand, that doesn't mean I think those 'thoughtless' comments were wrong. I.e. if KS really does feel that strongly, moderation is the real answer that would facilitate a community without these sorts of non-productive, community-poisoning heal-digging-in drama fests. $0.02... -dmc > hogwash, and it could have just as easily been stated at the very > beginning when OP stated very openly, "(Posting on this list instead > of a RHEL list as even though strictly speaking this is a RHEL issue I > expect CentOS developers to be familiar > with the problem I'm running into.)". > >>>> I'm guessing you missed the bit where I had previously confirmed that we >>>> didn't have any such problem. > > Ah yes, the Royal "We".
