jdow,
Change: Words 'blacklist/whitelist' to something politically correct
(hope and change).
Proponents: Those who want this change
Opponents: Those who don't want this change
Though we agree in the end--we're both opponents--I believe arguing the
technical merits is useless (not with me, with the proponents) since the
decision by the proponents wasn't based in the technical, it was based
in the social.
As I've pointed out in previous posts the proponents are under a delusion.
The multicultural agenda is doomed to fail because it seeks to unify
people who think differently as is evidenced on this list. Look at
Europe and the U.S. now. There has been years of the multicultural
agenda pushed on these cultures and it has brought no unity but upheaval
and it will only get worse. The proponents are bringing about their own
demise. It may not happen immediately, but it will happen.
We've been accused of making this political. We haven't. The politics
were forced on us. The reasons of the proponents bear this out. When we
respond politically, we're charged with making it political or told to
go away.
How does on reason with people like this. As I've found out, you can't.
Unity is achieved among people who have the same mind.

Please Marc, stick to technical merit for your argument. Getting nasty
does not solve technical problems, which we have here. Attacks are not
going to solve anything. Rational arguments may not. But, they should
be made just the same. Then the open source developers will go off and
do what they (think they) want. The job is to lead them to thinking
they want something different for what they see as good reasons.
Personally I believe the change is a technical failure and will not
provide the social results they seem to desire. They should think
about it.

You must be feeling like a king in your little PMC? Who are you to judge
whom is on the wrong side of history. No wonder people raise questions
here, with someone like you deciding things. I think the PMC should
disqualify your vote.
