A nice report on one of the recent OSCON talks; "How Open Source
Projects Survive Poisonous People"
Recommended reading for CLUG; we are currently experiencing a severe
increase in bile levels in multiple places, and this needs to be
thought about, not reacted to. Shades of Gary Larson's amoeba --
"Stimulus-response, stimulus-response. Don't you ever *think*?"
Some of the presentation is necessarily slanted towards the project
development process, but the overall mechanisms are about
*communication*.
There is a well-known catchphrase from USENET, which sums it all up more
succinctly.
"Don't feed the trolls"
