I can understand that, partly. But that won't help anyone. Assuming you're not thinking *nobody* outside infra does respect you, try to write the status report for those who you feel respected by. It will even make those happy who didn't respect you and maybe even make them respect you again because they see that a genuine effort is made to solve a problem that buggers them. > not getting respected by you, then why should we respect you back?

Respect is something that should be applied unconditionally, in my opinion. The "you don't so I won't" attitude gets us nowhere. -- Kind Regards, Simon Stelling Gentoo/AMD64 Developer -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
