I realise that as I am not a member I may be speaking out of turn here, if I am please feel free to say so, but I have to urgently ask that the message quoted is heeded. I have considered attempting to contribute to openSUSE with the limited skills I have from some time now, however the tone of the mailing list has been incredibly disconcerting. I know that as an Aspergers sufferer I may not be the best gauge for other peoples reactions but the infighting has been a major discouragement. I found the discord and telegram groups and have found them to be incredibly friendly, welcoming and a credit to the community and has made me realise that the mailing list isn't the whole openSUSE world but it is likely the first place that people find if they are looking to contribute and it doesn't portray the great community that openSUSE really has. I am also aware that the mailing list isn't a social list and it is required for the functioning of the community and I have no suggestion as to how anyone could fix this, so I know I am not adding any value in that sense. I do make the plea that, from my admittedly warped view of the world, stop appearing to be trying to score points. Please now look to the future. I understand that people have been upset and hurt by what has happened and I don't know the details, to be honest I don't want to as it is not my business, and I know this makes it hard but for the good of the community please look at how your message looks to those that aren't directly involved and have just joined, want to join or are just looking at the mailing list archives online. If there is anything I can do to help please let me know.
