First of all, I'm not sure why devrel was involved in a technical

aside from that, when Gentoo developers become a bunch of 5 year olds?
What is this absolute nonsense of "you don't like my toy, you can't have
your toy" going on around here? Jakub, if you will disrupt others
because you can't have your way, then please reconsider exactly what
your role is in this project, and maybe even how you might better serve
some other project.
I believe that jakub finds this devrel decision a step out of bounds
(not sure if anyone else detected the that in his statement) and saying
that to the java folks is moreso a way of pointing out just how silly it
is :) I mean if he was serious, he would have addressed the PHP
overlay, the webapps overlay...etc...
This childishness from *all* sides is getting really old, really fast.
People need to grow the hell up, and quit with the melodrama.

Look, I was on IRC yesterday, the whole thing was a mess. For once I'm
not going to step on devrels balls for this one. Someone had to do
something. For once I'm tired of *someone acting* and then getting
nailed for it because its not their place. Am I thrilled with the
outcome? No not really. Apparently neither is Jakub. Thats all fine.
Can always overturn it later. Or we can discuss it endlessly here
with no outcome, or we can make the council decide on what the proper
use of bugzilla is. Or we can all realize that we can't get our way all
the time and compromise with other projects*.
