Speaking of juvenile insults, your last mails concerning my summary have had their fair share of insults towards me(all unfounded and ridiculous). Would you please stop that? > > Also, public mailing-lists > > are not for discussing your personal issues. > > > It wasn't my personal issue; it was about an inaccurate summary and a > Council member blatantly lying and using his position for partisan aims. The summary was not innacurate; If someone is banned, I put down the reason given _at the time_ for the banning. That seems fairly straightforward. There is nothing biased(or anything deserving being called a 'lie') in that summary(notice I used the language "for what he called" indicating that this is not necessarily my view or the council's view of what occurred, only what reason was given for the banning). As those who I talk to can attest to, I bend over backwards to make sure all my summaries are professional and indicate what the person means, not what others say about their intentionns etc. I do my best at professional journalism(I am an amateur however) and your remarks to the contrary show you haven't given thought to how much time and effort I spend at making it unbiased and accurate. > You can keep on doing things badly all you like; just expect to get picked > up on it when you summarise it inaccurately in the archives.

I believe the Council was deciding only on what to do in #-council which is as stated their turf.

So am I, but your slandering of my platform is not appreciated at all. -- --------- Thomas Anderson Gentoo Developer ///////// Areas of responsibility: AMD64, Secretary to the Gentoo Council ---------
