Hi, Sven, I *really* appreciate the work you have been doing for Debian -- others might not, and might be wrong in this particular aspect --, and I've personally not had any problems working with you. *But*, while I'm not really informed about the political aspects, I think there is some final agreement to reach on this. This whole thing about you complaining and some other people "treating you bad" can't go on forever, especially on public mailing lists.
Sadly, I think there are few alternatives: either you can handle this, not taking whichever comments too personally, or you can't. This is a personal choice -- nobody can tell you how you have to feel. If the first answer is the closer one, then please stop complaining, and contribute, since this is what you seem to want. If the second answer is closer to what you feel, then I'm sure there will be plenty other people who'll be happy to benefit from your knowledge and skills. The point being that you can't be a team member in a team who doesn't want you to -- again, this might well reveal management issues, since letting talented and helpful individuals develop such blatant dissatisfaction is never really productive : I don't know the Debian internals well enough to have an opinion on this. So -- to all of those who are directly implied in this endless story : I don't know why you feel that Sven is inadequate in whatever team he belonged in, but consider the question wisely : I personally don't know of many people who are able/willing to put the effort Sven did into the PowerPC port. Sven : consider quiting Debian/forking/whatever, but please stop complaining -- I think hardly anybody will accept you as a leader with such an attitude.
