Please note that the fortunes removed were submitted by Ganbold some time ago. The things went as follows: - Ganbold posted a PR on adding quotes from Chinggis Khan; - the original version of the quotes was in rather poor English; - grog@ committed the patch as is without any corrections and left it to rot; - now Ganbold has got his commit bit and wants to finish the task he initially suggested. So I think Ganbold in a way owns the quotes and it's up to him to decide what final cut of Chinggis Khan's wisdom to present to the English-speaking world. Due to poor quality of grog@'s initial commit (which raised no objections BTW), the quotes had been WIP before this commit. IMHO this commit isn't covered by the "don't remove fortunes" rule. -- Yar _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/cvs-all To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
