You seem to have missed what I said: In order to have *anyone* fix them, they need to be acknowledged as DFSG violations. That's what is being discussed: whether certain freedoms are or are not DFSG violations (and therefore bugs). Demanding credentials from me personally doesn't seem to be addressing the point. > You're discussing docs for a project you're NOT part of Does that change whether what I say is true or false? As it happens I am a part of the Debian project. But that shouldn't matter, and I'll ask you to kindly stop attacking people instead of arguments. > and you're proposing resolutions/suggestions you can NOT even vote > for or against; I can't see the point. The point is to encourage rational discussion of fact and principle, and discourage false arguments, about a resolution to the foundational documents of the project. Documents whose promise I very much want upheld by all project members, whether they can vote or not. If all you're interested in doing is demanding my credentials and painting me as an outsider, I don't think this contributes to the discussion at all. -- \ “Generally speaking, the errors in religion are dangerous; | `\ those in philosophy only ridiculous.” —David Hume, _A Treatise | _o__) of Human Nature_, 1739 | Ben Finney -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
