This thread brings up a very good point. There are little children using our distribution, and they should not be exposed to dirty words such as the one being disputed in this thread. There are other packages that are also questionable too. "BitchX" comes to mind, and "Evolution" is on the top of my die-package-die list. We certainly wouldn't want little children asking about that, now would we?
In light of the above, I suggest that in the interest of being sure not to offend anyone, we remove the three aforementioned packages and any others that might be offensive. It's not censorship, it's decency.
Thanks for the mocking. :(
I wasn't mocking you. I was making a point about the dangers of censorship.
Well maybe we should have a vote if my moderating services are no longer needed. I could find better things to do with my time quite frankly. I just took the job because it was policy and something I could do in the background, and I took the heat from other devs. It's boring and a thankless job. I even get threats to my life sometimes, nevermind them sharing their thoughts of what they think of me. ;)
I never mentioned what I thought of you; please don't misrepresent my words. Furthermore, my post had to do with censoring Ciaran's package in the tree, not maintaining a level of politeness in a chat room.
Maybe it's time to do something else.
If that's the way you feel, then so be it. However, I think we would all hate to lose your valuable help in #gentoo.
regards, kutsuya (aka bit`)
