Imagine a new user or visitor trolling this ML. They want to learn more |
| 2 |
about Gentoo. Then they come across the Paludis thread. How TF can they |
| 3 |
possibly follow what is going on? Then, as the thread wears on it |
| 4 |
degenerates into more personal attacks. So it's Bennett/McCreesh against |
| 5 |
the world. OK. However, continuing the thread serves no useful purpose |
| 6 |
except, IMHO, to completely obfuscate the original point of the thread -- |
| 7 |
to allow paludis to have a profile or sub profile and/or whether or not it |
| 8 |
should be on the tree or in an overlay. |

While I am completely against any form of censorship, I certainly wish I |
| 11 |
had the ability to block that thread and all further postings to it. Maybe |
| 12 |
paludis can set up a blog on the berlios site? |

There are many important issues that have surfaces WRT paludis that affect |
| 15 |
the core of gentoo (pun intended). These issues cannot be resolved on a |
| 16 |
ML. There appear to be certain policy issues that the council needs to |
| 17 |
resolve. |

So, while I am not endorsing pablum, at least let's cut the thread. I see |
| 20 |
nothing useful coming from it anymore. |
