I know this is intended to be tongue in cheek, but I have a dev in the |
32 |
dotnet herd who's really pretty upset right now as a result of such |
33 |
apparently scathing comments accusing him of being an evil conspirator, |
34 |
a wrecker, and traitor, when it wasn't even *him* who introduced the |
35 |
keywords in question, he did a by the book bump moving arch -> ~arch for |
36 |
all arches listed in keywords. |

I understand that this is a consistent problem, and that we constantly |
39 |
have to deal with breakages like this, but please don't send emails |
40 |
like this with so many accusations without at least talking to the herd |
41 |
lead, or viewing CVS history first. |
42 |
|
43 |
I like dealing with the mess of pissed off and enflamed developers as |
44 |
much as the arch teams like dealing with bad QA, so next time, please |
45 |
use at least a *little* subtlty before blowing things up. |
46 |
|
47 |
Anyway, I'm glad all the arch teams, who are the one's that never screw |
48 |
up and save us all, are fixing things. |
