If I hadn't seen you in action for 3 years I probably would have done exactly the same thing. > The best solution is really quite simple; give credit where credit is > due.

How is this supposed to be helpful? If you want to educate people, you can be constructive or you can spit in their face and call them names. You chose the latter, and Jesus feels like he got shit on for trying to help. > The principle I am defending is more important. Prinicples are an important thing, but so is attitude and behavior. How about next time you ask nicely first and give people a chance to correct their errors? Instead assuming that people are willfully stealing your ideas? Then if they don't care you flame-on all you want. I just hope for our sake that your flame-first attitude hasn't cost the debian-powerpc community another civic minded individual. jas.
