That's fine for you. But it doesn't mean that other DDs or non-DDs experienced a different side of James. > I strongly suspect there are many others in Debian who also have no > problems communicating with James. And there are many others that actually have those problems and I don't think it's their fault, when James can't differ personal dislikes and duties of his job as being in a role position. > I expect it's because we say things like "James, have you got a minute?" > and "thanks for your help" instead of "[YOU] ARE [TOO] LAZY TO WORK AND > [TOO] LEET TO COMMUNICATE WITH SECOND-CLASS DDs. [I WANT YOU TO] BE > REMOVED FROM [YOUR] POSITIONS" You're totally ignore that most of the people that are pissed off by the non-communication by James (& others) now tried to communicate with him in prior times with all given respect and politeness. The ongoing complaints from different and steadily growing number of persons having problems with James & others should be a clear sign to act now and not to either hide or simply ignore this problem. Ignoring this will make DDs and non-DDs to drop their work for Debian.
