Having said all this, I personally think that David's change was a bit
hasty. We don't sensor anyone else's "live-site" contribution, why
would we filter our own fellow committer? If Thorsten wants that to
be his tag line for his personal site, what say to do we have in that?
It's his personal web site.
It wasn't hasty. I thought long and hard about that.
I don't see it as censoring. It is just the same as
any change that we make to code or docs. If we see
something that we reckon is not correct or could be
improved, then we change it. If other people think
that it needs discussion or needs to be reverted,
then say so as we are doing now.
In the past i have made other changes to this
live-sites doc and to other docs that linked
to sites that were not relevant. (Not saying
that this case is not relevant.)
Such as publically correcting my incorrect SVN log entry that seemed to
imply one of my sites was the first dispatcher based site (which it
wasn't) [1].
It wasn't actually David that made this correction, but it is still a
precedent.
