Hello Ian, I understand your frustration with the work shared with the author and other linked people. However, this is not the way to answer to somebody who is attempting to do a contribution to understand the social weather after an important change. The first part of your mail is... Maybe somewhat harsh (I would invite you to review the "ignoring negativity" panels at this last DebConf; that's not the communication pattern our project needs!), but this last paragraph is frankly... Frightening. > To debian-devel: Does someone here speak enough Japanese to find the > contact email address for someone at NAIST who will take reports of > potential problems with research ethics ? So, maybe Asavaseri is a student struggling with methodology? Maybe a researcher from a different field, who can use some correction in his ways for this subject? For that, we would all thank you for most of your mail. But with this paragraph, your mail turned into a _threat_. That is not something that should go down easily. I ask you not to pursue this path.
