Everyones opinion is different, no one is right, no one is wrong - It's all just opinion.

The only thing it's served to do is piss off a very important contributor to the D ecosystem.

None of this thread matters - can we move on?

"It" being this thread.

It also unleashes some critism people wouldn't have formulate otherwise.

And contrary to what people say, I think such topics give a dynamic aspect to the NG. Such topics are in a sense recreative and pleasant (fun) to read. The only thing to get is that this is not so serious.

If anything, this thread shows that there has to be more communication between the developers. It's detrimental, when discontent builds up behind the scenes only to erupt suddenly over a minor issue.

There are two things at loggerheads here: a) the call for strong leadership and b) the desire to make decisions based on open discussions within the community.

It's certainly not easy to find the right balance, which is why better communication is of utmost importance. The odd email might help to get people out of their bikesheds to discuss the color of the door.
