I don't care much about /usr/share/misc/operator, but I do care about people making changes without discussion, or making changes with too little discussion, or making changes that go against the consensus of the discussion. I would like to see this change reverted, becasue it was made with too little discussion. > Maybe because the whole tech-userlevel@ mailing list has become > poisonous?

If you are not willing to discuss changes, or pay attention to other people's opinions, then you are part of the problem. You don't have to agree with everybody, but you do need to pay attention to the discussion. If no clear consensus emerges, or if the consensus is opposite from your preferred outcome, then you may appeal to core to make a decision. --apb (Alan Barrett)
