Aaron, there is no resolution. They have demonstrated

enter into any resolution.
It's never been about resolution, though, but attack. The intent is to
destroy free software for the benefit of corporate vultures.
Adrienne, we don’t know each other, so I’ll share this: my intent has
been to find a safe and smart and welcoming community. If constructive
criticism comes across to you as an attack, consider why you are
assuming ill will and bad intentions. Consider how you benefit from
silence and blaming victims. I found a lot of very lovely free/libre
software contributors in Cuba, in Malaysia, and other places I’ve been.
And at least a dozen FSF staff and Libre Planet speakers and other have
demonstrated kindness and intelligence and a community orientation.
But sadly, this list, a minority of individuals refuse to believe
people’s personal experiences — and all have communicated in a
closed-minded way. Aaron send Thomas and Paul and others and Jean have
occasionally shown interest in imagining better governance, new
organizational contexts for happy hacking. But it seems that there
remains a preference for cult-like hero worship and foot-kissing
over learning and growing personally, or for the movement.
I’ve resolved to find other communities. I join hundreds of others who
have decided leaving or fleeing hostile, toxic spaces is best for free
software.
So, HELLO WORLD!
If anyone on this list can recommend other productive and happy
community spaces for free software, please let me know!
Paraphrasing Mark 6:11 and Proverbs 10:18 -
And verily I say unto ye - he that conceals hatred has lying lips, and
he who spreads slander is a fool. For St. IGNUcius shall shake off the
dust under his feet for a testimony against ye. And ye who blaspheme

Enough fun for the day. I'm off to work on GNU C-Graph!
