[BangPypers] Raising issue WRT Bangpypers mailing list

2014-05-24 Thread Pratham Gadre
Hello Brian  Jesse,
I am an incognito member of the BangPypers mailing list. Reason for being
incognito is
simple, the people who run the list are very sensitive to criticism and
react in a harsh and non-professional manner.

I was looking to see, who I could raise this issue to, via the Python.org
website, I saw Brian was the communications officer and Jesse is the
Vice-Chairman of the PSF.

This time, I write to you with links to the content of the emails, which
can be found at
https://mail.python.org/pipermail/bangpypers/2014-May/010156.html

My replies are available here - http://pastebin.com/7kWWcMvF

Both my emails were rejected with the response:
Your message was deemed inappropriate by the moderator.

Screenshot of replied from the moderator.
http://www.anonimg.com/uploaded-510571c65c8efdb3970761d95f85f5a8.png.html

At the risk of sounding like a 5 year old complaining about a bully hitting
him in school, may I request you to kindly warn the moderators of the
mailing list.

I guess as member of the community, if I feel something is not right, I
have the right to voice my opinion. A few months back Anand Pillai, a PSF
member.
https://mail.python.org/pipermail/bangpypers/2013-September/thread.html

It would really help, if there is some intervention.

I would have ideally written to the list owners, but I have real bad
experience in dealing with them earlier.

Regards
Pratham

Just for context, here's the email where Danny says that he was not
offended by the first email and didn't interpret it in the way that
Pratham did
https://mail.python.org/pipermail/bangpypers/2014-May/010161.html

and my follow up reply saying that I didn't mean it that way either.
https://mail.python.org/pipermail/bangpypers/2014-May/010163.html

Also, I'm not managing or policing the list so please don't CC me
directly in any replies. The list owner is mentioned on the listinfo
page is probably the right person to contact for this kind of thing.

​At the risk of giving a non-issue more visibility, we’re being extremely
silly here. I went through the emails here and I dont find anything
offensive or sarcastic or twisted in any of the replies. I do however find
2 things odd though.

   - Senthil’s original reply of *I looked and found it* was kinda
   pointless. It was not required, and totally not helpful; Then again you
   tend to ignore noise from signal pretty fast if you’re on internet often.
   - There’s no reason why we’re moderating messages this aggressively.
   Voices of dissent, however bad it might be, need not be curtailed.

Ha, I stand corrected. Senthil's reponse did contain everything the
original poster wanted. Now I'm not sure what everyone's upset about.

I'm quite sad and astonished that Noufal even had to defend himself after
helping the OP! Mr. Gadre your comments were rude, uncalled for, and make
no sense in the context of this thread.

Let's just let this pass? I, for one, don't have the time or interest to
handle these kinds of things. If any of the people want to discuss this
on the list, please do but I don't really want to spend any of my time
on it.

Let's leave this. We had an earlier issue where people were offended and 
dissenters including me misinterpreted the sentiments  intentions behind the 
original argument. The words said on mail can be read and interpreted 
differently by different people. 

But, just for the record, I didn't find any sarcasm in Noufal's reply.
