Nope. I was talking about the initial mail which lacked context. The initial mail did not have this excerpt. I posted the excerpt. I should have read the code completely. I didn't. Guilty as charged. And I fixed it in the next email. > > I am not defending Anand here (I hardly know him well) but it might be > > Contrary to your denial, your email admonishing me for raising it on > this list and calling me a troll (and then trying to educate Anu on > its definition) does come across as "defending Anand" even if you > claim not to know him well. > I think we are splitting hairs here. I don't know him and I am not taking sides and this is not a battle. I support more constructive methods of approaching these problems in the community. Thats it.
