My actions drive people away, lets proceed on that premises. Keeping the above |
17 |
in mind. |

19 |
I was harmful to the Foundation mailing list by some perceived CoC violation |
20 |
in 2008 and moderated. Like the above comments on the premises I may have |
21 |
drove others away from that mailing list. |
22 |

23 |
I have not been on the Foundation gentoo-nfp mailing list since 2008. How many |
24 |
have been interested since based on the mailing list archive stats since? |

Short of 2007-2008, the list was and has been pretty dead. Why are people not |
29 |
active when I am not around? If I am so harmful. It was dead before I started |
30 |
posting in ~2007. Its been dead since 2008. I guess it is my fault no one is |
31 |
interested in the foundation since 2008? I drove everyone away never to |
32 |
return. |
33 |
|
34 |
Why comments about the Foundation being quasi-defunct body over the years I |
35 |
find to be ironic. |
36 |
|
37 |
Why is there a lack of interest in the Foundation? |
38 |
Who really harmed that community? |
39 |
Was it perceived CoC violations in 2008, or the resulting actions? |
40 |
|
41 |
Did I kill the -nfp list? |
42 |
Could I really kill or hurt the gentoo-project list? |
43 |
|
44 |
One hand I have an ego, next I am some existential threat to Gentoo... |
