recently someone asked me if I can point out particular examples of sexist blogposts in the context of openSUSE community. So be it - here's the fresh one: http://rauhmaru.blogspot.com/2010/08/parabens-opensuse-5-anos-de- vida.html
To bad that this link is down already and only gives a:
"Desculpe, a página que você está procurando no blog BLOGMARU não existe"
This is the new entry, the old picture is linked as well http://rauhmaru.blogspot.com/2010/08/parabens-opensuse-5-anos-de-vida.html
It's not that I would be a close-minded prude - I wouldn't say a word if someone posted pics of nude or scantily clad chicks to his personal blog, not aggregated on a community Planet - but associating Playboy-like pics with 5th anniversary of openSUSE? How unproffesional (to put it mildly).
Oh thats unprofessional - but teaching czech swear words to germans is fine? Did you try to ask the guy why he did what you imposed?
Unless, of course, the author of the post wanted to imply that we're the best and the stablest distro for pr0n server. Now everyone can answer a question if this is the kind of publicity we want for themselves.
Censorship sucks and if "open" doesnt mean what it says then it is censorship!
No one limits what Raul does or does not post on his blog, it's just against the guidelines of the planet. It's not open for a lot of things and that what makes it a pleasent read for most of the time. I don't think Raul intended this picture to be sexist but more as aesthetic, still the ladies sure aren't there for much anything besides looks.
Please drop this gentleman some nice comments :)
It seems that someone already did - they shut him down - at least with his comment. If you think that this is "free" and "open" - thank you for supporting censorship!
http://mvidner.blogspot.com/2010/08/who-does-not-want-such-gift.html Martin Vidner and Bryen Yunashko drove that as far as I can see, they handled it according to the guidelines. Sucks though it's actually about celebrating opensuses anniversary, Raul gets slapped in public for his enthusiasm, was this really the best way to handle it? I think it doesn't raise awareness about the problem in a useful way.
