No I am just fed up with the nit picking and stuff that is really not
productive. I will say flat out Chrissy is some what responsible for me
resigning. I am sick of a loud in your face minority speaking up
constantly. At one point a private personal attack I did not appreciate
one bit at all. Which I did forward on to the other trustees etc.

None of it leads to increasing productivity, just additional wheel
spinning. From someone that back in 06 wasn't interested in becoming a
dev. Since then at least to me, and IMHO has been a total pain.

Now that I am not a trustee. I can speak my mind clearly without someone
telling me. Oh you can't act like that your a trustee, etc and so on.
Which trustees are just legal paper pushers, they do not reflect Gentoo
as a whole. That would be more the council. So trustees should not be
held to some standard others aren't.
