No, the months of tedious flamewars were brought about by your hypocritical, ill-advised, and divisive GR. The DPS is not completely blameless in this issue, but "let ye who is without sin cast the first stone" and brother that places you at the end of the line. It's amazing how you shield the fact that you made an extra-constitutional GR by screaming how the vote wasn't IAW the constitution and whining about how $gremlin_of_the_hour is MIA when you fail to recieve a response within some pathetically small amount of time. To be more precise, one could ask at what point in this process you became such an adherent of the constitution, before or after you tried to use it for financial gain? Now that the makeup of the Progeny CDs and the Progeny philosophy is public knowlege, it's perfectly plain that you wished to retain non-free in the Progeny CDs while hamstringing the Debian project's ability to do the same. You failed, and now you're screaming at the top of your lungs about the unconstitutionality of others actions to cover your own malfeasance.
