It appeared that was your mode of asserting your point of view in the face of opposition and advice as to how to properly express it, yes. > I expressed the problem on the mailing list. What I did on the wiki was > not expressing the problem, obviously, but working around it. If it were obvious, we wouldn't be having this conversation. Had you done it once, I'd have dismissed it as a mistake. Your repeated actions spoke of a purposeful message of dissent. > I wrote to Franklin because he removed the wiki page that correctly > featured the problematic information. I didn't mean to provoke anyone. Disingenuous. Of course you meant to provoke. You clearly disagreed with how we executed our plan to migrate the wiki documentation to our official manual, and rather than follow the correct procedures once they were pointed out to you, you flatly refused to contribute to the manual and went right back and did the same thing over again. > This issue was causing problems for users, and I saw people struggle to > write Debian Live to a USB stick no later than yesterday.

Nothing was stopping you from making a personal page with the removed material and referring people you personally helped to that page. There was no call for deliberately thwarting our efforts. Also, nothing was stopping you from making a contribution to the manual, as we requested, either directly or by filing a bug. > I'm happy to see this is solved.

On the contrary, for months, I've had a fixation on live-manual, one that has served me well in getting the job done. This business with the wiki was unwelcome and time-wasting. It diverted time and energy away from doing this job. I would have *gladly* let the matter drop had you shown an interest in working with us instead of against us. > Speaking about the BTS, I > filed a minor bug related to putting Debian Live on media. Thank you for your filing. The corrected chapter will be included in the next upload. Ben -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-live-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
