Since one dev so far has stepped "out of line", and this is by no means the only time it has happened, I don't see how this argument has any merit. If it becomes a pattern where all members of the QA team are causing problems, then I can see it as being valid. I don't think you will find one person that is going to say they are capable of changing how Ciaran interacts with people. This is an entirely different issue though, and I have talked to Ciaran about it. What I was saying above is that I am not going to go and get involved every single time someone has a disagreement. This situation has obviously grown to be ridiculous and I have had a talk with him about it, so he knows my feelings on the situation, and what I expect. -- Mark Loeser - Gentoo Developer (cpp gcc-porting qa toolchain x86) email - halcy0n AT gentoo DOT org mark AT halcy0n DOT com web - http://dev.gentoo.org/~halcy0n/ http://www.halcy0n.com
