I can't believe that I got drawn into this, but here's my two cents..... This thread has been about personal attacks from the beginning. In the same breath as talking about supposed censorship the OP was also calling for banning a volunteer Ubuntu developer who simply works on mono-related packaging. (Since there's been a lot of lip service about some sort of wider "respect" from the Linux community, I think it's worth mentioning that said developer's collaboration with Debian is a great model for gaining respect.) He was also calling for the firing of a Canonical employee for simply having written a program in C# before being hired by Canonical, where as far as I can tell he isn't involved in any work around mono at all. Nearly every message from the OP has accused that Novell or Microsoft employees are some how infiltrating Ubuntu with out any evidence at all. While there might be merits in discussing the inclusion of mono in a default Ubuntu install or issues about forum moderation, neither has been the OP's real purpose. All he has done from the beginning is make slanderous claims that verge on paranoid delusions. If anyone who hadn't made up their mind on this issue has read this thread, I can't imagine they would come away with a positive view of the anti-mono viewpoint. The OP has done his cause a great disservice. Don't bother directly replying to me. I've wasted all together too much time that I could have used to do something productive for Ubuntu by reading this tripe.... - Andrew Starr-Bochicchio Ubuntu Developer -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
