^^^^^I just followed that thread but I'm blocked by something: as a non-native speaker of English language, I can't get all the subtleties of the above word. For some reason (which may be wrong), I take it as offensive (not to me: I can't design a website). I may be entirely wrong but maybe the same happened to Karolina who was apparently hurted in some way. Would it be possible to put some light on this? I very much doubt you intend to be insulting, probably more direct....but I'm not sure that such intent is clear. After all, ruling out someone's proposal, even with the best intents in the world is one of the hardest things to do...particularly by email. I'm probably influenced by the fact that I had useful collaboration with Karolina in other work areas in Debian and I would be really annoyed if she's hurt by a remark made in a d-w thread...and discouraged in some way to collaborate deeper in the project. It probably just needs some clarification and we're all ready to have beers together at Debconf..:)
