[Jon Dowland] > In what way is it hostile? It is hostile in the sense that nobody in Linus-git went to GNU-git to ask permission before using the same name for a whole different project. I could be wrong, maybe somebody did get permission. To be clear, I'm not accusing Debian of a hostile takeover, I'm accusing upstream of a hostile takeover. I'm accusing Debian of abetting it. -- Peter Samuelson | org-tld!p12n!peter | http://p12n.org/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
