Yay for Merge Requests (Doc Writer)

You know what's cool? The community stepping up to help with things. I added the Documentation Writer job ad to the e.V. site yesterday, and I copy-pasted part of the text from the PDF into markdown for the post. There was a typo in there (that none of the board proof-reading had spotted; it's

Re: This list is now on emergency moderation

Hello, I only subscribed to this list recently because someone pointed out to me that a discussion was going on which might interest me. I read some of the messages in the discussions about Richard Stallman, and was not inclined to participate. However, I do feel I have something to say here,

This list is now on emergency moderation

Dear all, Now that a discussion about a toxic person outside our community, and more importantly, the governance of an important part of the FOSS ecosystem has now devolved into "nazi" being tossed around: This list is now moderated. Only posts which meet the high standards of our agreement

Appreciation

For several days I had a strange issue in Gnome via PopOS, where my desktop would slow down a lot. Checking free -m, top, and journalctl did me nothing. Finally just as I was about to give up on GNU/Linux, I tried KDE. My issue is resolved completely, uptime is at nearly 24 hours and not a

Re: RMS and open letter

Hi Stefan > Nazi comparisons dont have any place on this list or in KDE. Please don't completely miss my point, I have not compared RMS to a Nazi or assumed that someone else compared him to that, my point was that, given the sheer size of this whole ordeal and public outrage, spanning different

Re: RMS and open letter

I'd like to point out that what started all of this, in 2019, was a large misunderstanding, followed by a storm of out of context reporting and clickbait titles. In the original email he was describing Giuffre as "willing" from the point of view of Minsky, not Giuffre herself. This is not an

Re: On the reappointment of Richard Stallman as a director of the FSF

Thanks for this, it looks like a level-headed statement to me. I have more than once been annoyed at the inertia of our community to take a stand when we would be morally obliged to do so, but were bogged down by internal discussions. This is the opposite of that pattern, so, dear board...
