Welcome to the d-i team, this is the way that people who are not in the one true straigth line, or humble enough, or whatever, are dealt with. I think it is sad, but well, there is little chance to change that or to get heard, as i well know, so your best guess would be to provide actual work and patches and stuff. Not sure if this adapts to your actual situation and skill though. But then, you are right to voice your critic of this ambient, i was myself told to be silent about this, but i do strongly believe that the d-i leadership is dead wrong in this approach, rejecting discussion, trying to marginalize those they disagree with, and so on, and i think that they should be reminded regularly of their errors, in order to some day drop a bit their pride and learn how to work with people with ideas that don't follow the one staight dogma. But then, there will be probably lot of folk saying i damage myself more by writing this and not be silent, but it has been months and months, and being silent doesn't help to solve the underlying problem.
