So Sam Ruby is the ECMA conveiner for the .NET CLI.. I propose (since its well known) that he's an apache committer and the PMC chair of Jakarta that he be told he can't do that anymore.
Ugh! No, you are missing the point here.
Sam can do whatever he wants to do as "Sam Ruby." I'm not going to tell Sam what to do *ever*. But, I feel that if he decides to rant about ECMA or .NET or IBM or Sun or the price of pigs in Beirut, then he shouldn't do that within the forum of the ASF unless the foundation is willing to legally stand behind his views.
The foundation is responsible for everything on our servers. I don't care for it to be associated with *personal* views. Go find a different soapbox to stand on top of. Your contributions to the ASF don't merit you getting a personal bully pulpit. -- justin
Return my comments to the context they were in. I was responding to this:
about what happens when you make a comment about another company (read,
partner) in your private space -- if it's possible to trace that you are an
apache guy, even if it's obscure, then that is bad.
I can see this is a very emotional issue for you, however I request the courtesy of not
taking me out of context and making it into the issue as a whole.
I cannot believe a DNS entry could be so controversial. Personally I don't believe the
proposal should have been here, it should have been on "infrastructure" and those whom
are "committers" to infrastructure should have voted. If someone had a serious need to wield
influence then they'd need to contribute to the infrastructure. However, that's my PERSONAL
soapbox...
Thanks,
