21 Sebastian,

23 you've failed to notice an important point that others have already
24 tried to convey to you - #gentoo-infra is the home of the Gentoo infra
25 team. Yes, developers go there to address infra issues on Gentoo, but it
26 is the infra team channel and not the channel of every Gentoo developer.
27 Furthermore, the fact you consider it insulting, doesn't make it
28 necessarily insulting. Also that tone was used between other developers
29 who know each other very well and wasn't directed at you.
30 You acted like you were entitled to set rules for behaviour in another
31 team's channel. It must not surprise you if the people there weren't too
32 pleased or impressed.

40 That is your opinion and a perfectly reasonable one. It doesn't mean
41 everyone shares your opinion or that everyone agrees with your proposals
42 to address that problem.
