You're getting ridiculous... check the FACTS, check what is the subject of the channel, check who is there and what they are doing. Tell me where else on the world you have such a concentration of people (more than a hundred at any time of the day) working for Debian, discussing debian's development apart from the debian mailing lists ? You know the answers, as well as I do. But because of your own politic opinion of what Debian should be, you try to discredit my opinion. My position is as legitimate as yours. Why should I have to justify that the channel is related to Debian ? Why wouldn't it be up to you to justify that it's unrelated to Debian ? Why should we have to answer this question now ? you may use your opinion on this point, to help you decide how you will vote... Now, since neither Branden, nor Wichert felt the reason to answer in this thread (and since people think that they are those who are able to make a decision on this point (being channel operator and channel founder)), I think that they silently acknowledge the way I followed to resolve this issue. > *Probably*?

Actually, I really wonder who is the more bureaucratic of us. I'd just like to settle on this issue. You want people to get over a complete philosophical study when common sense should apply ... -- Raphaël Hertzog -+- http://strasbourg.linuxfr.org/~raphael/ Le bouche à oreille du Net : http://www.beetell.com Naviguer sans se fatiguer à chercher : http://www.deenoo.com Formation Linux et logiciel libre : http://www.logidee.com
