There is NO indication of causality here. Your logic is missing or flawed. > Focusing on software would have made FreeBSD do better. Fair ‘nuff, let’s do that.

Andras, I bet you’d like a citation, but is one “needed”? Here you’re just trolling the poor sunovabidge.

I think any of us who’ve had any real participation in the various forums of communication used by The Project for any significant length of time are familiar with the often passionate and sometimes contentious nature of many talented and creative people. When a necessary response, which may come as drastic, is sometimes taken it’s only made worse if it’s met with shock and surprise by the may-be brat throwing the would-be tantrum. > On Jul 15, 2018, at 7:26 PM, Erich Dollansky <freebsd.ed.li...@sumeritec.com> > wrote: > > Does anybody need more: > > Keep it civil. > Be tolerant. > Remember that you are in public and that your actions determine the > public perception of the project.

I had the same very same question myself, and I must say, it’s a mighty fine CoC you got here. I see nothing at all wrong with yer short CoC, but see, we’re white, we’re men. A small CoC’s always seemed to work well enough for us. Ask the women though. See what they think. Ask a darker fellow how he appreciates the utility of having the longer, broader CoC. Core and the CoC committee did _not_ have an easy job to do! No, they didn’t do it flawlessly but it seems like it’s so Gawt dayum easy for some of y’all to sit back and complain from your easy chair. If you actually know how to behave and conduct yourself as a decent human being then why t.f. should the prior or current CoC have any real bearing on your life _whatsoever_? This is not rhetorical. I am seriously asking, please, can someone explain all this butthurt to me? I can admit, i do understand the appeal of the good ol’ days of the boyz club. Colorful and loud, outright raucous discourse, i tend to enjoy. But we are a bigger project now. Like Warner said, the 90’s are over. With all the good we’ve achieved comes some compromises. I’d rather support and protect diversity. Can anyone actually tell me why they find the long CoC so intimidating? Honestly, who really left the project _over_the_CoC_? Pointing at our CoC to cast blame is just simple minded and lazy. There are PLENTY of problems and issues with the project and the software while there are also many very good very hard working people doing all that they can to make FreeBSD GREAT, and I think it still is. I find discussions about those issues to be infinitely more interesting than bickering about our CoC. Much LOVE to all of you. Oh shoot, now did I just trip over FreeBSD’s massive CoC? — CJ _______________________________________________ freebsd-advocacy@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-advocacy To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-advocacy-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
