Hani is a good guy. He really understands technology, he's honest, he's open and he has a utterly wicked and warped sense of humor.
I count him as a friend of mine, and I certainly have no problem with him becoming a committer for CeltixFire. BileBlog is satire with almost always a grain of truth. He just pushes the point far beyond sanity, and that's what makes it such a fun read. I see no downside, and the upside is that he started to understand what we're really about.
