So boiling down your verbal vomit, I get Yes, your democracy IS just pretend and I - the person who * tries very very hard to avoid as much human contact aspossible* oversaw one of the most toxic FOSS communities for close to 25 years * through heavy-handed authoritarianism directly caused one ofthemost notorious forks in FOSS history really do know better than everyone else how to run acommunity.To that I say: * you are delusional, as you are the source or enabler of all the toxicity * Libav had NONE of these problems (not saying it was perfect - itdidhave other problems, but not these) * there is no hope for this project as long as you continue to holdthereins and I've wasted enough of my life on it.If the democracy is just pretend, then above all, you certainly will agree that my SDR code would have been pushed to git master. It was not.OH MY GOD, you are not bringing this up again! Ever heard of theexpression"the exception that proves the rule"? Think how much community outlashitreceived and how much effort it took from EVERYONE to prevent you from doing something NOBODY wanted. You should really drop the "it's totally a democracy, except I can dowhatI like" stance you have. Repeat after me👏it's👏not👏a👏democracy👏if👏I👏can👏be👏judge👏jury👏and👏executioner👏You are not him, and never will be.Vittorio, this is not ok at all. I don't even know who "him" is, but the second half of this email is out of the line.It's a meme: https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/bro-thinks-hes-him-im-him It's really sad that a CC representative is taking sides and victim shaming, when the very people of this community are leaving (forcibly or not) because of this thread.I'm not taking sides, i want things to calm down.Wanting things to calm down does not justify bothsidesism: https://www.merriam-webster.com/wordplay/bothsidesing-bothsidesism-new-words-were-watching You have outrageous and unprecedented behaviour from two people censoring the mailing list without any recourse.
For the record, I unlocked the thread you're talking about and approved all the held messages. Action against Compn should come later. And me and the rest of the CC are dealing with Michael for the archive deletion and the git access fuck up. That said, I would love for the vote to be over and a new CC assembled to take care of this.
So when i say i want things to calm down i mean please stop enlarging these threads. Things are bad, and the last thing we need is for them to get worse.
