And I will reply to my own post, and say that it is this friendly, |
| 15 |
cooperative, supportive behavior that quite a few Gentoo Developers just do |
| 16 |
naturally, but some may go "What!?! Oh, I am expected to actually be |
| 17 |
pleasant and positively represent Gentoo in the community!?!? Fuck! I just |
| 18 |
wanted to work on <insert project here> and be an ass 99% of the time." |

Let's get the message out that this is not OK. |
