Wow, Michał, this email comes off as pretty harsh to me... Is that |

really necessary? |

That sounds like a somewhat better solution, although sometimes it can |
| 12 |
make sense to send email to where the developers are already, rather |
| 13 |
than putting the onus on them to join a separate mailing list. |

Come on... I think it's fair game to share news about people breaking |
| 21 |
things on the gentoo-dev mailing list. Naming & shaming can be useful |
| 22 |
sometimes. And even if you wanted to make this point, you should have |
| 23 |
made it more constructively. |

This is completely out of line for me. It seems to me that Doug has |
| 30 |
the best intentions. If you disagree with his approach, can we not |
| 31 |
have a civilized discussion about it rather than going straight into |
| 32 |
attack mode? |
