Sebastian, I understand your concern, but as Alec puts it, we have gone a long way since the 2007-2008 low regarding this type of behaviour. I'm not advocating that communication in Gentoo mediums has become perfect, but I don't see all the rudeness and lack of respect and empathy that you see, not in a global manner. There are a few cases where people could and should improve their behaviour, but let's not forget we're a technical community and so it's imho an illusion to expect us to have a "hugs and kisses" tone. But yes, everyone participating in Gentoo mediums should strive to be courteous, respectful and promote debates on ideas. >> Thanks for your interest, >> >> >> >> Sebastian >> >> >> [1] http://www.gentoo.org/main/en/contract.xml >> [2] http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/council/coc.xml >> [3] http://www.gentoo.org/main/en/philosophy.xml >> >> > - -- Regards, Jorge Vicetto (jmbsvicetto) - jmbsvicetto at gentoo dot org Gentoo- forums / Userrel / Devrel / KDE / Elections -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.15 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJMGWjYAAoJEC8ZTXQF1qEPNjcP/08Amjt1n2cAL4cxEY6/gyer QUrITGY/ZKy9RrPxHd/wxzJ6OBot/nk1oCnwwA/T1HVdIabNoZHSDAQrEwhaNiKO cA5hL/z2IeG0L8NTXjqphc2hFA0rdmkheWEuJ9vFwDf/9lMuOoYtiKOh9uvGOC3V 9d5Df+1/SpMd9/xKRj0G8ed6iLoR2qM+uhBB11MYJtdVDnD/I3E3gZlp8YXk6c/k wg11JbTVWzGySOSU4Qqx8kdEQFM82D6Wee+sw8MOb208Ol7MfU3mILguvenrW9Tt smfcxYym8Ohqtn9571C4RE1AA990DH+gCLQQ6oGh67kprpxF+/hXD0qHz3FOXPP9 ep7SSAGqyHlRa6cAZQRjA0FBXx/8m1zkKqyeQXwm+OCPemyJd9McL2nFazC01EAh JVEIjXof1F58i7Z2b8hIIOVGSuLRiBYJgAdfMmo8nT+eoPlu6iIxY5Jny/QCY6Q/ 8QrYEhr1JyXkzVSqszHwHXMdVCHyySYVCprgux7T1HcKqL4zLz7hmcjFT6wvHizH r8aPWWnmegn1nyIIznGOpIsOgcmo0dlrsBnjojdFPFZMLjOl8C83561nNWNTracF xOAsVat05L+GjY4c8tD+cEPKMKKqvcX7GYmuXIGlm+5HtsVXmf6XelUEGnuPFCCj neHxWtb7oD/hZUfw7buT =nKgk -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
