sr#81625 want's to add 'sword', a bible study tool to openSUSE:Factory. While that is totally fine, the spec file %description contains stuff like: [...]
Not really coming up to a solution or decision, unfortunately. What the hell, really. I really, deeply hate religions, all of them, but that's my very personal opinion, just like anyone who believes may have her belief as her personal opinion. It is not relevant in any way -- I'm just explaining that personal philosophical or political opinions shouldn't matter for things we do as a project. And to those who'd want to keep it out: really? I mean, really? Censorship is any better? IMHO the best solution would be to just take it into Factory based on its technical aspects (just as with any other package that wants to go into Factory), but would change the %description to Michael's proposal, specifically because it is a lot more accurate. And be done with it. Cmon folks, it's a project, it's a community (whatever that means), which very obviously means making compromises. And while on a personal note I agree with every single bit of what has been said against religions on this thread, this is really no place for acting like that. It's fine to discuss on #opensuse-chat, because hey, what the hell ;), but offending groups of people on the project mailing-list, nah, really, just don't, it's not nice nor funny at all. Speak out freely, of course, but don't start dissing part of the community on their personal opinions. One may only do that with trolls ;) cheers -- -o) Pascal Bleser /\\ http://opensuse.org -- we haz green _\_v http://fosdem.org -- we haz conf
