It is simply about what the problem is. I don't care about any names but I certainly would be interested to hear what the actual problem is before starting some public discussion on how to avoid that unknown problem since that is somehow missing the point be definition.
My 2 Cents.

This is all very well, but again, people's privacy needs to be respected: the suggestion of mentioning avatars is absurd as we all use both user name/avatar and real name - there is little anonymity in openSUSE (transparency, remember?) - and is it really necessary to detail the events of a series of interpersonal conflicts on an open list? Do you really need to know every detail? Why? Also bear in mind how much the media loves to jump on an issue and turn it into a representation of the project as a whole. I think we need to show a bit of trust in our board members here. Part of the success of a free software project is that it needs to be fun. We choose to be here. If it's not fun, we can simply walk away and do something else. When difficult personalities make the evironment unpleasant, we lose people. So yes, for the good of the whole project, at some point you have to say 'enough' As for avoiding the problem in the future, this doesn't require a dissection of past events. It isn't difficult to treat others with respect and courtesy. We are only human, and can forgive each other's transgressions, too. So let's move forward. regards, Helen -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
