Mike and others as it applies, |

I have a question or two. I don't care if you, or others, reply to this |
19 |
with a answer, just think on it. A policy, rule if you will, has been |
20 |
decided on by the council. This after MUCH discussion on this list and |
21 |
the council hearing both sides of the argument. You, apparently on your |
22 |
own or with a few others, have decided to ignore the policy or rule. |
23 |
|
24 |
What would you think if someone else ignores another rule that affects |
25 |
you, negatively of course? What would you do? What do you think should |
26 |
be done to the person ignoring the rule? Should that person be allowed |
27 |
to do so with no consequences at all? Just everyone do as they wish |
28 |
regardless of the rules. What affect would that have on Gentoo as a |
29 |
whole? Do you really want to see this happen after all the mess Gentoo |
30 |
has been through in the past? |
31 |
|
32 |
Think on that for a bit. Give it a day or so or better yet, sleep on it. |
33 |
|
34 |
Again, I don't care for you to answer or reply. Just think. |
