Ohh, and I'm not surprised at the backup squad you brought in to push for cmake support, since I've received no less than three Emails today advising me of your association with Daniel Sahlberg and Nathan Hartman, you've all known each other for over 10 years.

Says it all doesn't it :)    ... and thats rhetorical, not a question.


Careful with those ad hominems. I'm no stranger to having strong opinions and using strong language on list, but you went way over the line there.

Frankly, I don't care about any word used in this thread. If you want to play sophistry games by replacing u with s, go right ahead. However, *attacking Daniel and Nathan personally because of their association with Timofei* is completely out of line. As is attacking him personally because of his opinions about CMake don't align with yours.

funny how nobody recognizes that and dares say boo about it to who actually did use it, yet are more than happy to nag on me for using a word I never used, with that borders on a threat, I can see clearly right through you.

I can see whats going on here. 30 years of running abuse depts, RBL's,  usenet servers and a 17year stint as an IRC oper on one of the most popular (and tough and rogue) networks around gives me thick skin, but also the ability to see right through people and their agendas.


Ah, I see, hidden agendas, conspiracies. And the old and well-worn argumentum ad auctoritatem, which in some ways is worse than ad hominem.

If you can't hold a reasonably polite technical discussion without immediately attacking people who disagree with you, you may have trouble getting valid points across. I'll remind you that your very first post in this thread started in a needlessly aggressive manner.

At this point the thing to do would be to take a deep breath, a step back, and start again /without/ assuming everyone is out to get you.
